Wishing you all a beautiful beginning to the new year... as the old year comes to a close, I reflect on all of the things it brought my way... some good, some not so good... but I will remember the positive things... and put the not so good to sleep... as always, I will thank God for the many blessings He has given me, my loving family, and my family who has gone before me who are always at my side and in my heart... their love will never fade...
As I gaze once more upon the beautiful cognac bottle that was a gift to my daddy from France in WWII, I am reminded of those who have fought and continue to fight to keep us strong and free... to them I am eternally grateful... I shall pray for their safe return in the coming year... and to all of you, my most heartfelt wishes for a blessed New Year... Cheers!... xoxo

Hi sweet Julie Marie,
I love that photo of your old, very loved cognac bottle. It should be on a postcard/card, it's truly a gem!
Lots of happy wishes for you and yours in the new year to come forward to dream. Safe/sound New Year's Eve, dear friend!
(Things are finally getting back to normal here, two very long walks in a row... 'bout time, right ;)
