Dear Blog readers,
I forgot to post this at Christmas time.
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas season full of Christmas Carols, family, singing, friends and travelling.
Back to school and taking down the tree decorations on Epiphany today.
Much love to you all.
Julie and my three men!

Oh Christmas Tree
--------------------------------
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree
So many memories you behold,
Of jubilant celebrations
And a future yet untold.
A promise of a new baby,
Or heartbreak that they are no longer here.
An infectious peal of laughter and joy,
From a bald-headed boy.
Looks of surprise, wonder and glee
As you three dig under the tree.
Now there are new traditions. laughter and His Names,
Decorating and proclaiming what we believe.
Christmas is not just about a tree,
But our Savior Christ the King.
Lets turn off all the house lights,
And snuggle up to hear,
The Advent story once more
Of how men traveled so far
Shepherds bowed low, angels sang loudly
The candles will still burn brightly,
To push back the dark
As we reflect in our hearts,
On Jesus, Daddy and "B".
