Hi MIP family, Only a few months ago I did not know how I would survive without my ABF and today i realized not only have I survived, I have thrived. Spent a wonderful Christmas Eve with my kids and a coworkers family. Last minute they invited us over and we had such an amazing time. This morning my kids and I opened presents and relaxed all day, made a nice dinner for us and they even helped with the cleanup. So hear I sit with a cup of hot tea being so grateful for life, for living and for serenity. No bad phone calls, no drama, no stress, no drugs, alcohol ruining our day. Just peace, togetherness and calm. I am so blessed and grateful to all of you fo helping me through the darkness to enjoy the beauty of today. Merry Christmas to all!

Wow. I am there with you both. I have had a wonderful peacful day with the family and it would not have been possible without all of the people in this program and on this board. Three years ago I would not have thought this day possible. I have seen my faith work a miracle in my life.
Enjoying the serenity and hoping it spreads like a wildfire.
