Christmas is a time to celebrate family, love and appreciate this thing called life.

We want to share with you a powerful and truly inspirational love story about a father who pushed his disabled son in a wheelchair in eighty-five marathons. Eight times he's not only pushed him 26.2 miles in a wheelchair, but also towed him 2.4 miles in a dinghy while swimming and pedaled him 112 miles in a seat on the handlebars--all in the same day. Father also pulled his son cross-country skiing, taken him on his back mountain climbing and once hauled him across the U.S. on a bike:

I want to wish all my clients a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope that you will all have a wonderful time with your family, friends and that your homes will be filled with love. This is also a great time for me to express my gratitude to all of you who helped me grow as an agent, but more so as a person. You brought something special into my life and I've learned so much about life from you. I am thankful for this job that gives me an opportunity to work with people from all around the world and experience different cultures without going abroad. Coming from Bosnia - a small, war thorn country, I could not imagine this new life in my wildest dreams, so I am very, very thankful.

I am writing this post, because I just received an email that touched my heart and I want to share its content with you. Pictures below will remind us to be thankful each and every day. What are you grateful for this Thanksgiving?

It’s election time and Canadian politicians are gearing up for 40th Canadian Federal Election on October 14, 2008. Here are some Housing related promises made by Conservatives, Liberals and NDP to attract voters:

Conservatives offer first-time home buyers a break

Stephen Harper was occasionally drowned out by protesters attacking his party's economic record as he pulled another "modest" election goodie out of his campaign bag today, a tax credit of up to $5,000 on closing costs for first-time home buyers. It will apply to fees such as land transfer taxes, inspection fees, appraisal fees, and legal fees, which can add up to between 1.5 and 4 per cent of the final purchase price. The tax credit will reduce first-time homebuyers' tax payable — and, Harper suggested, ease their final sticker shock.

Liberals promise money to retrofit homes

A time to bring from the past
All that is right and good,
To give to the future
The best that we have to offer.

May the New Year
Bring you new dreams,
Ever happiness
And peace.

At this very special time of the year, I like to look back and give thanks to all of the wonderful things that have happened to me over the past year. I want to thank each of my valued clients! Referrals from you and other friends are the most important asset in my growth as a real estate salesperson. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness!

I look forward to helping you with any of your future real estate needs and hopefully servicing you in the years ahead.

Sincerely,
Jasmina
