Believe it or not, we didn’t take many photos of our Christmas. We have two and one I won’t be posting. I’ve taken a break, not sure what to share about our lives around December 24-25. Here are a few of my memories:
My favorite moment: Mark, listening to the reading of the Christmas story, silently and carefully handing out Nativity characters to each of us at their mention in the story.
My biggest surprise? My own bookstore: a Kindle. It took my breath away. I may not be keeping a blog anymore; Too much to read.
Most wistful moment? Realizing Paige didn’t receive any toys this year; just clothes and teenager things.
Most beautiful carol? Oh Holy Night, sung by the King’s Singers
The gift I didn’t buy: a new piano bench for Richard
Gift that required the most effort: Caroline’s I Spy Quilt
A cherry on top: a sweet-sounding rental violin on which to fiddle
Books I’ve read over the past few days: A Christmas Carol, The Importance of Being Earnest, Little Women
