MERRY CHRISTMAS!

The fire is blazing and everyone is busy with their gifts. John is doing the "advanced" Oxycise video, Christy is learning to juggle, Ana is reading "Finding Your Own North Star", Nicole is reading "The Giver", Nathan is playing his new gameboy game and here I am. :-)

I decided that for today....
I will live today as if it is my last day
I will rejoice in where I am today
I will rejoice in who I am with today
I will rejoice in the gifts God has given today

"THIS IS THE DAY WHICH THE LORD HAS MADE,
I WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT!!!"

What a glorious day it is, the birth of Jesus and the celebration of His love that endures forever! May our love for Him and each other endure through the ups and downs of each day!

Merry Christmas!

LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW!

Possibility for a "wintry mix" tommorrow, so the weather forecast tells us. WOOHOO! If any sort of frozen white stuff is flying about, I will be outside with my tongue stuck out trying to catch it. You have to take what you can get in Texas!

I know there is a God because of the infinite number of snowflakes(and some other things too) but snowflakes are on the brain because of the "wintry mix" forecast. :-) Those gorgeous flakes didn't just evolve. Here is a fun site, where you can make your own snowflake:

I leave you with a lovely poem about snowflakes, of course!

"A snowflake falls out of the sky.
A piece of God's handicraft.
Lovely and chaste and full of His light.
It lingers like others in one vast white sky.
Yet, stands separate, apart with its own soul it flies.
Yes, it is one poem, in one page of time.
Yet, it be one piece of His planned design."
Linda A. Copp
