But I just had to post this great picture of Bella with the Advent wreath I took last night. (We had to replace a couple of the purple candles, Dom was afraid they were becoming a fire hazard.)
“Candles! Candles!”
Advent is Over, I Know

It’s the video of Jessye Norman singing a carol composed for her by Donald Fraser – We just heard it on radio and it was so beautiful I had to share! I hope you’ll like it, too. Merry Christmas! G.
This Christmastide (Jessye’s Carol)
Green and silver, red and gold
And a story born of old.
Truth and love and hope abide,
This Christmastide, this Christmastide.
Holly, ivy, mistletoe
And the gently falling snow.
From a simple ox�s stall
Came the greatest gift of all.
Children sing of peace and joy
At the birth of one small boy.
Let the bells ring loud and clear,
Ring out now for all to hear.
Trumpets sound and voices raise
In an endless stream of praise.
Green and silver, red and gold
And a story born of old.
Thank you for posting these pictures and sharing your Christmas joy with your viewers.
Merry Christmas to you all and happy first Christmas to Phia! You have such a beautiful family, Melanie!
