Best Gift of Christmas

I really believe that memories are what make Christmas special. This was the gift that made me tear up this year. My Mom gave Ksenya a necklace that belonged to my Grandma Bear. Ksenya is the only one of my kids who remembers Grandma Bear and still talks about her. I miss her so much sometimes - she was a remarkable woman and I remember her wearing this necklace. It was so thoughtful and special and I was so thankful to my Mom for passing on this memory to Ksenya.

I created this group for work, but it's also something that I think is really cool. And you have to a chance to win $1000 at the same time.

Thanks.

Readers Digest wants to give you $1000 and the charity of your choice $1000.

Thanks for the friendship :)

It is so cool that she can remember Grandma. I know Sarah knows her but there is such a part of being a "Guymon" that I don't think she'll ever understand. I have tried to explain "life on the farm" to John" but we were so blessed to live it. We are so lucky to have such an incredible legacy!
