we look tonight for the promise of the Christmas star.
I know the day will be so bright in the heart of every child.
I do hope the travel weather will turn out so very mild.
I can remember as a child and listen through the night,
for any sound that may give me that special sight.
The sound didn't come, so off I'd drift to wake the next day.
I went down the stairs to try to find if Santa stopped my way.
He always did and awe and wonder would fill my heart.
I thought of how Santa covered all the world to my part.
Today will pass and it will be a wondrous time to see
as with my wife we together share the wonders to be.
A Merry Christmas to all my friends this coming season.

The cookies look great! My 22 year old came into the kitchen on Christmas Eve and asked ever so sweetly, Mom, can we make cookies like we did when I was little? My heart melted and that was my Christmas right there. Hope your Christmas was great and your New Year will be too.
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look so good! I bet there aren't any left, hope everyone enjoyed them
