And the Angel continued, saying,

"Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren. For with God nothing will be impossible."

Then Mary said, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her. Luke 1:36-38 NKJV

I enjoy your comments. And I want you to enjoy reading each other's comments. To that end purpose, I moderate comments. If you're impatient, MeeboMe.

Commenting Ideas
  • If you do not have a blog or site, skip the "web site" line, pull a name or "handle" out of your head, write a note, push the button. (No excuses!)
  • If this entry reminds you of a story of a similar place in time in your life, you are welcome to tell your story.
  • If you discover your story is taking more than 3 or 4 paragraphs (and if you have a place on the web for your writings), I will not be insulted if you take your story back and finish it at your own site. But then I will be disappointed if you don't come back and leave me a summary of your story and a link -- in the comments.
  • If you have already written a story about a similar place in time, please feel free to leave a summary and a link.
  • It's never too late to make a comment or tell a story.

This is a portion of my Sister-in-Law's Christmas Town collection.

Can I just say I'm really starting to be homesick and nostalgic?

We got Christmas presents from my oldest yesterday. We got a Christmas card from my youngest today. And due to arrive on Thursday are five more boxes from my middle child. It's really starting to feel like Christmas.

The five boxes are our belongings that we had left behind in Oregon. My books are in this batch. I can hardly wait!

I forgot to tell her that my Christmas ornaments are in with hers (still packed from when we brought them with us when we moved up there 1.5yrs ago). So, I think I might treck down to the dollar store and see if there's anything left to be had down there ... and soon everything everywhere will be on sale ... and there was a rumor that I was suppose to do cards this year. hmmm

So ... is anybody else running behind?

ttyl,
me

    Why does this Site Exist?
    10/26/06
    My website is largely my memoir ... my musings, photos, encounters, life's stories.

    But what really thrills me is that when I let go of my stories, it's like sending out little sail boats out on expeditions. Very often they come back to me filled with other people's stories. Continue...
