But

A Tuesday Tune, A New Baby and Two Birthdays!

Well, this was truly an amazing weekend! 

My niece Maisie was born Saturday the 17th!

Happy Birth-Day Maisie!



 My daughter Maddy and my sister Stacey also celebrated their birthdays on the 18th! 

Happy Birthday Maddy and Stacey!




December is such a fun month for our family!

Here are few happy snaps from our busy weekend that I would love to share with you!

Welcome to the world sweet little Maisie!

With everything that is happening in our family and with Christmas literally only days away, I think that now is probably a good time to sign off for the year. I would like to thank you for your kindness, friendship, comments, emails and support over the last 12 months. I feel so blessed to have met such truly wonderful people through blogging. Thank you so much!

May the gifts of love, peace and happiness be yours at Christmas.

When A Child Is Born

A ray of hope flickers in the sky 
A tiny star lights up way up high 
All across the land dawns a brand new morn 
This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas 
The winds of change whisper in the trees 
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn 
This comes to pass, when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around 
You got the feel, you're on solid ground 
For a spell or two no one seems forlorn 
This comes to pass, when a child is born

Spoken: And all of this happens, because the world is waiting. 
Waiting for one child; Black-white-yellow, no one knows... 
but a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter, 
hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbor, 
and misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever.

It's all a dream and illusion now, 
It must come true sometime soon somehow, 
All across the land dawns a brand new morn, 
This comes to pass when a child is born.


Warmest thoughts and best wishes for a wonderful holiday and a very happy 2012!

    Congratulations! What a nice way to welcome the Christmas season.
    My sister celebrated her birthday yesterday (the 19th) and as my whole family gathered here on Sunday, we sang happy birthday and gave her cards and gifts - we dont' want her to get lost in the Christmas craziness.

    Have a wonderful holiday season. Looking forward to see what you have in store for us next year.
