Here I sit.  Yes, sit.  The day after Christmas and I wonder what should I be doing.  I have been running non-stop for the last month that I don’t know exactly what I would like to do.

So first of all, I wanted to blog.  I have been writing posts in my head for weeks now, so I figured now would be a great time to sit and start writing them.  I have so much to share, photos, gifts, visits but that can all wait.  Yesterday I was hoping to post my favorite passage from the Bible and to wish you all a Merry Christmas, since I did not get a chance to yesterday, today will be the day.

I hope you all had a wonderful day yesterday, spending time with Family and/or Friends.  We had a marvelous day, lots of good food, good conversation and fun with the kids. With that I share with you the reason for the season.

My Father reads this every Christmas Morning, and of course it is what Linus reads out on stage in A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Luke 2:8-14

“And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year.
