It's late Christmas Eve and I just fed a pony my daughter cares for. It was sobering to be in a dark stable, getting water and hay. Jesus' birth wasn't pleasant and cute like a Christmas card. The next song on the radio was "the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay." He came into a broken world, knowing we suffer. I need to ponder...and maybe I can cry, too. Not so good at that.<br /><br />I wish I could comfort you and make this all go away but all we can do is forge on one step at a time. B's comments are encouraging as always.<br /><br />Goodnight, Jen. Rest well. You will be in my prayers.<br /><br />Love, MichalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21050713.post-57227713727379244722011-12-24T22:20:24.548-05:002011-12-24T22:20:24.548-05:00"OK" and "better" are good Jen..."OK" and "better" are good Jen!<br /><br />Christmas will be fine but like I have always said, Christmas is just one day of the year that I should be celebrating the birth of Jesus. And remember too that your family will be there for you to celebrate the holiday when you're ready.<br /><br />Not sure about the holiday cocktail, but I imagine prime rib would be hhhmmm... interesting? <br /><br />Jen? Hard to see now, but I think you may look back on this Christmas and consider it a gift. Certainly not a traditional gift, but a gift none the less. I hope this proves to be true when you look back on these days of Dec 2011.<br /><br />And remember that, no matter what the day, you are thought of often, and loved much. <br /><br />Blessings to you always and forever.<br /><br />BeckyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
