Singing the Song of the Angels Today!

I simply can't believe that tomorrow is the day all of my company will be arriving for Christmas! How has the time passed so quickly? It's crazy!!!

Having said that, I am completely excited to welcome every single one of them home...and I'm almost ready, too. "Almost" meaning that I have several hundred small to medium-sized things to do before bedtime, all of which I need to get started with immediately.

So I leave you with probably my shortest post ever...!

And bundles of love and good wishes for a Merry Christmas.

Robert Louis Stevenson said it well. “Help us rightly to remember the birth of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and the worship of the wise men. Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift, and good desire with every greeting. Deliver us from evil by the blessings that Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clean hearts. May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, and the Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus’ sake. Amen.

Tomorrow night I will have 3 little grandchildren
nestled all snug in grandma's beds...

There is nothing like having your grandchildren sleep over. The checker at the store today was asking about my family. When I started talking about my grandchildren and how excited we were to see them she looked baffled. Then I told her "oh this is the best part of our lives!" The lady behind me winked and smiled. At least she got it!

So glad they will all be with you soon. I agree that the time has gone so fast, it hardly seems possible that tomorrow will be my last day of baking baking baking. I will actually be done. Life happens. I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for all of our blessings, and your three little blessings will be with you tomorrow. I'm so happy for you.
