I'm writing this with soft Christmas music playing as I'm sipping a good cup of coffee and I'm smiling at different houses in the neighborhood as the lights are coming on and it's only 5 a.m. - the excitement of children on Christmas morning is truly wonderful. My boys are older now - I'll be lucky if anybody is up by 10 a.m. and that's only because there will be banana pecan french toast! Relatives are coming this evening. It will be loud and full of laughter and hugs and teasing and fun. We'll celebrate. But for now - I'm quietly celebrating the peace, hope and love that this day brings.
I like the warm glow you added to the manger, this is beautiful! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOh Kim...this card is gorgeous!!! I just love it! Hope you had a fantastic Christmas!
ReplyDeleteGreat sentiment and beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading about your Christmas, especially the lights that your neighbors had on. Sounds like you had a joyful celebration. Ours was a bit more subdued this year for some reason, perhaps because the grandchildren are older now. (and so are we!)
ReplyDeletelovely card Kim, such a great portrayal of the real meaning of Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year mf.
