Christmas isn’t really about the tree or the presents wrapped beneath it.It’s about the way family gathers closer—because long ago,God chose to draw near to us first.

To my late husband Roy and me, Drew Brees was the best New Orleans Saint's quarterback ever. Words cannot express what his arrival and his presence did for the City of New Orleans and all the cities around after Hurricane Katrina devastated the area. Nothing was "normal" after that and his arrival brought the biggest… Continue reading 03.20.21 Thanks for the memories Drew Brees!
