Playing with an Idea~

Merry Christmas

Every year when Christmas times comes around I think to myself..
"Why didn't I work all year on getting things ready and purchased.."


I think, "why am I not the one who sends homemade Christmas cards the day after Thanksgiving."
Better yet...how come I don't even keep a list of who I sent cards to last year... ?



I feel Grateful when last years dresses still fit the girls..
And pray they don't get taller,
at least till after the winter so they can wear them every week!



I wonder, "Who is in charge of all the celebrations?"
Then I look around for the Mom.
You know.. the one who will make it all happen and even make it look effortless~

Then I remind myself..
IT'S ME!



(With a LOT of help from a loving Father in Heaven)



I am really good under pressure..
Things will be fine and our family will love whatever I do~
Because in Their Eyes I am perfect! (well..mostly)
So I need to just go with the flow..
I have to remember ..The only person I am competing with.. is me.
and I am good~ :) (well.. lol Mostly)

PS.. SO ARE YOU!

Merry Christmas~

The First~

Little Donkey Eric Boswell*

Little donkey, little donkey,
On the dusty road.
Got to keep on plodding onwards,
With your precious load.

Been a long time, little donkey,
Through the winter’s night.
Don’t give up now, little donkey,
Bethlehem’s in sight

Ring out those bells tonight
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
Follow that star tonight,
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.

Little donkey, little donkey,
Had a heavy day.
Little donkey, carry Mary safely on her way.

Little donkey, little donkey,
On the dusty road.
There are wise men waiting for a
Sign to bring them here.

Do not falter, little donkey,
There’s a star ahead.
It will guide you, little donkey,
To a cattle shed.

Weeks and weeks ago..
