A December Tribute

Joann wrote a lovely piece about this month that paints a picture.  This is really not a wonder as Joann is also an artist and painter.   She stays very active at Plush Mills and has had a great 2017.   


              The Beautiful Renewal of December's Winter Season

Here we are at the end of December already after the beautiful Christmas holiday.  We received  a winter wonderland the Lord send us to enjoy.

How bountiful are the Lords Blessings for the Christmas Seasons and the end of the year!

I saw another fox run across the top of my hillside one afternoon while looking or glancing rather to the left of my living room.  He was pretty long - from the nose, which was hite again, to his white tail.  He seemed a darker color than last time; maybe dark brown or orange.

For Christmas Day I went to my brother's house in Wallingford, where Dale, Doreen, Daniel, and Samuel live.  We joyfully celebrated the Christmas holiday on December 25th 2017.

We exchanged our gifts we had for one another including a happy celebration of eating dinner together and our conversations about various things.  Dale mentioned how thankful we should be for doing as well as we are doing.  There never was a truer statement.

The Christmas tree in the corner, decorated by Doreen, Dale's wife of many years now was beautiful.  The love we enjoyed between one another as a family while exchanging gifts and the big gold balls on the tree seemed to radiate God's love for us, as well as for others remember the birthday of his son Jesus!

Our church services were also a great blessing to me this year of 2017.  They seem to give us rest and renew our spirits for the coming year of 2018- just around the corner this Sunday January 1st.
