And wonderful things to eat, and a tableful of family to share with.
A spotting scope for Felix, and a trip to the lake to practice viewing the gulls.
Lots and lots of cello-piano music from Clara and the Composer. A fire in the woodstove.
A tree full of beloved ornaments. A hike. A happy baby riding a tricycle down the hall.
"Your sun will set no more; neither will your moon wane; for you will have the Lord for an everlasting Light, and the days of your mourning will be finished."
(Isaiah 60: 20)
that's a treasure, anna...a christmas focused on the joy of the Lord and on family---rather than drama! mine was blessed as well.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing what brought you joy this Christmas.
Is that chocolate mint fudge in your pic of goodies? Would you mind sharing the recipe, please?
ReplyDeleteI love your comment of "a happy baby riding a tricycle down the hall." :-) Brings back fun memories of the Christmas my older two kids were rollerblading(!) in the house because there was over a foot of snow the ground! ;-)
