A Child is born...




... for you, for me, for each and every one of us.




Yes, Christ was born that day more than two thousand years ago to save mankind.



That was the greatest gift, that God sent His only Son to save us.



Love came to the world that night.





Will you let Jesus be born in your heart,

and will you let him dwell there forever?



Do you remember these beautiful verses?



What shall I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would give Him a lamb.
If I were a wise man, I would do my part.
Yet what can I give Him...I'll give Him my heart.



I hope you will all have a Blessed Christmas, one that is celebrated
with love and joy in remembering Christ's birthday
and may you and your loved ones know many special blessings
of peace and happiness in knowing the Lord.

As you enjoy this festive season with family and friends,
may the spirit of Christmas live within your hearts
throughout the New Year.

Family Under the Weather


My family and I have all been under the weather this past week, first our son came down with a mild cold, then our DD and I got this awful stomach virus which somehow we managed to pass on to my husband so it has been a sick bay these last few days. We had been getting ready for Christmas and I was happy to know we were kind of getting there early...we also had a painter lined up to do some painting for us before we put up our decorations. We waited for him for a whole week, he never turned up and kept coming up with all sorts of reasons and/or excuses. In the meantime we had our living/dining room furniture all covered and placed in one corner and everything else packed up!
One week of waiting was enough, we are putting everything in place, the job will have to wait and most probably we will have to get another painter.
As they say when it rains, it pours, it was raining this evening and we have our street being resurfaced so there is a terrible continuous noise from the machines. I am also so far behind on my crafts and I was hoping to get ready for my Christmas sale/exhibition next weekend. We are hoping things will settle down so we can get ready for Christmas.
As an on-line friend joked with me earlier today, she said, "I have heard a saying about the family that ??? together stays together but I think the word is PLAY".
