Very Merry

December 24, 2009 · 16 comments

My little guy is tucked snuggly beneath his covers.

Cinnamon rolls have been left to rise.

The fire is all aglow.

Shadows cast by candle flames dance across the dark room.

My heart misses my baby girls.

But Grams and Gramps help to make my spirit bright.

Baby it’s cold outside.

I’m warm though.  Here in this place of fractured perfection.

Oh so close.

Blessed tonight.

And every night.

May your Christmas be full.  And warm.

May your blessings be many.  May you hold them tight.

May His light make bright your path.

Tonight.

And every night.

Your Christmas card is hanging on our fridge and I often smile when I walk past it! You have such a beautiful family.

Let’s spend more time together in 2010!

P.S. Where do you get your card made? I think I might attempt to send out Happy New Year cards next week… ;)

What a precious family you have. And your red head — wow, she is stunning. I’ve always loved red hair.
