Back to BC
I am still tracking behind schedule but the weather is much, much better. I am currently in the Damascus, Oregon area after spending some time in western Canada.
Once again this year, I spent a little extra time in Vancouver, BC with a little girl I know that is fighting cancer as well. I'll spend time with her sister as well. Regrettably, I can't let them see me... but I am so proud of both of them that I want to take a little time and make sure they are tucked in and sleeping well. It was a tough year for both of them as there were additional follow-up surgeries. Life seems to be a roller coaster when you are battling something like this.
All I can say is that I really admire the entire family for how they handle this along with all the other challenges life brings us. It is not easy but they are doing it. Day to day they are making life go on. As I said last year, I never cease to be amazed by the strength and character of children that face cancer. They are wise & strong beyond their years. And they are truly an inspiration to me. Its well worth spending a few extra minutes with them.
I have deliveries to make so I'm going to sign-off for now. I'll post again soon.

Santa, I sure hope that everyone in Lakeland, Tennessee was in bed and sound asleep when you went through. I know two children there and sometimes they are a little later getting in bed.
Santa, I have been following your Christmas Eve travels all day. I am currently looking out the window up at the skies, hoping to catch a glimpse of you. I have not posted much in response, as I have been content sitting by the fireplace with a steaming hot mug of chocolate mint tea, reading your posts. Although I know you are flying 36,000 feet above me, I somehow feel like I am right there beside you on your journey around the world...thank you for sharing your stories as you experience them. It has made my Christmas Eve truly special.
