This is John Victor
on Christmas morning
with a shiny red bow
tied around his head.
Isn't he simply precious?
We told the children this year
that their present to us
would be their presence with us.
And what a gift it was
just to enjoy being together.
Being present
was simply as precious
as JV looked in that red bow.
Perhaps my present to God
this year could be
my presence.
Precious presence.
Simply precious.
Thank You, God, for these wonders of Your love:
*the Christmas hambone
*words of welcome here and there
*undressing the tree
*Ben hauling it down the walkway single handedly
*Joseph's sweet Christmas song
*sparkling eyes
*quiet days
*time for a little siesta
*holding hands for the blessing
*the walking trail through the woods
With gratitude,
Sally
