– On the Seventh Day of December…

On the seventh day of December
For lunch, came a mother with her son.
It was the first time we got to meet them,
We visited long after the meal was done.

The mother was a sweet faced lady,
With a bright smile and wavy dark hair.
Her personality was as sweet as her face,
And her dark eyes a sparkle did share.

Her son, a wee lad of six months,
Was as cute as you could wish to see,
With his beautiful blue eyes, and his wisps of light hair,
And his smile, so full of sweet glee.

So contented was this wee little lad,
That I got to hold him for quite a long time!
While the rest of us talked, he just mostly watched,
‘Till around three the clock did chime.

Altogether, it was a nice visit,
And made for a pleasant day.
Now I must conclude, for it is late,
And on my pillow, my head begs to lay.

To the KING be all the glory!

On the sixth day of December
Hannah’s now ten years old.
The weather is a little warmer,
The morning isn’t quite so cold.

Faster and faster, the days fly by,
Closer and closer comes Christmas day.
The seconds tick by, turning to minutes,
The minutes into hours… they just seem to melt away!

To the KING be all the glory!

On the fifth day of December,
Our birthday celebration went late.
I now feel so utterly exhausted,
That rhyming schemes flee my weary pate!

So I’ll leave you with our “cake” pictures,
As to my pillow I plan to run.
Hopefully I’ll have more to write,
After the rising of the morning sun!

To the KING be all the glory!

– On the Fourth Day of December…

On the fourth day of December
My CHRISTmas book is coming along.
I’m writing in chapter two,
And trying to decide on a CHRISTmas song.

I’d love to finish it by CHRISTmas day,
But somehow I doubt I will.
I have soo many other things to do,
That will much of my time fill.

We worked on gifts today,
For CHRISTmas and a birthday too.
Tomorrow we have a celebration planned,
With ice-cream to make and baking to do.

To the KING be all the glory!

– On the Second Day of December…

On the second day of December
More decorating to do!
We have more nativities
Than there are animals in the zoo!

But at the last, most are now up,
Though their are a handful still to do.
We need to finish painting a shelf,
That is supposed to hold quite a few!

Handmade gifts, had progress today,
Sewing machines hummed for hours.
But my list to do, grows up anew,
Like a castle’s, ancient, stone towers.

So now I must leave, to get some repose,
So to be ready to meet a new day.
For morning will come, before I expect it,
And my list will again come my way!

To the KING be all the glory!
