I can't believe the month of December has flown by! It is Christmas Day, early afternoon. I get a little break in between family festivities and food fests so I thought I'd blog a bit. I wrote some Haiku's and took some photos of some of my favorite things about Christmas. Enjoy!
Moon rise; silent night.
Simple stable; holy night.
Love. Came down for us.
Star brightly shining.
Stop. Listen. Can you hear him?
Singing songs of peace.
Singing songs of peace.
Look, little one, look.
He comes. A child, just like you.
Embrace. He is love.
No rain drops on roses or whiskers on kittens, but these are a few of my favorite things...
 |
| Bubble lights! |
 |
| Snowy Christmas |
 |
| Remnants of Joy-giving. |
 |
| Grandmas cookies and coffee for breakfast |
 |
| Ornaments with stories |
 |
| Our motherhouse. I sang with the choir for "midnight" Mass. |
 |
| Handbells. I love singing and ringing. |
 |
| The revered and most special of all cookies...the Butter Horn. Only on Christmas do we get to partake in such splendor.
|
Finally...my most favorite is spending time with my family and community...
 |
| Mama and Kate |
 |
| Crama, Dan, Mama, and Kate |
 |
| Ellie and Kate |
 |
| Sisters Guisselle, Charlita and me |
 |
| Sisters Kathleen and Joyce |
 |
| Sisters Connie, Mary Jane, Toni and Bernadette |
And because this is just too funny to let go...My sister Ellie attempting to play wii tennis with a text break in the middle of it. :)
 |
| Whack! |
 |
| Oh...hang on...text break. |
 |
| Hiyah! |
Merry Christmas faithful readers....
