Layton, Utah—

I am a single Mother of five beautiful children ranging from 16 to 8 years old. Just this year on Oct. 21,2019 I got divorced from my emotionally abusive husband of 16 yrs.

I have been going to school for Culinary Arts, since Sept. 2019, and working at the Layton DI. Raising five kids, working and going to school has been a journey, full of learning, growing and much needed sleep. I have about seven months left of school and then I can get into a better paying job, so I can raise my five kids and move into a bigger place.

Anyway on the 22 of Dec. I got a knock at my door, and found the book and a jar filled with $152.40. I have come to realize that even though one my not feel loved and wanted, God steps in and shows how much we are Loved and wanted. I thank God for the many Christmas miracles I received this year. I Feel that God was telling me that he is proud of me and who I am becoming. I read the book and love it very much and I am in the process of filling my own Christmas jar for next year to give away.
