Children are not a burden to escape or endure; they are a blessing that drives us to Christ because we are incapable of parenting well without Him. - Kim Brenneman

December

In honor of my very best friend who I could not survive day to day life without....

Oh sweet December filled with cold and snow
And Christmas carols ringing through the air,
You bring with you warm thoughts of hot cocoa
Beside the fire in a comfy chair.
Outside there is a frozen country pond
Just perfect for some ice skating and fun;
The season's foods of which we are so fond
Will soon be coming from the oven- done!
The icicles outside are beautiful
All hanging from the houses' snowy eaves,
And inside are the bulbs so whimsical
That decorate each branch upon the trees.
Here with each other we can share the love
Of Him who sent His Son from up above.

-Maria Taylor 2003

Miss you friend... can't wait to see you again!
