Luke 2:14
Never had I planned to take such a break from the computer and blogging. Missing you in terrible degrees and only misty thoughts appear whenever I begin questioning when I shall be able to get back to it again in any regular form.
Celebrating Christmas with family, at my house this year.
Only Charlotte and I truly witnessed close-up the bittersweet moment when my parents saw each other for the first time since Thanksgiving. My mother's illness has required her to live in an Alzheimer's facility, the grief this has caused us is unbelievable. But we managed to get her here for a few hours.
Daddy was carried downstairs by his grandsons, and then later they carried him back upstairs and to bed. He did beautifully.

Claire was faithful in clean-up duty. What did I ever do without her in past years????? She also brought along a delicious brussel sprouts dish and creamy mashed sweet potatoes.
Amid the disorder before everyone had left to return home, a family photo was in order, in our new sunroom.
Only a tiny peek into my home on Christmas Day. I have enjoyed sharing it with you.
