Happy Birthday, Jesus!

"I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all the people. The Savior- yes, the Messiah, the Lord-has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! And you will recognize him by this sign. You will find a baby wrapped snugly in strips of cloth, lying in a manger." Luke 2: 10-12.

Merry CHRISTmas to all our family, friends and  blogging  fans.  Enjoy your holidays, be safe and love the one you're with.  As you enjoy your morning yogurt, cereal or my favorite, milk and cookies for breakfast today, remember The Dairy Farmer who works 365 and say a little prayer for Peace on the farm today.  He works every holiday to allow his employees to celebrate at home with their families...and on days when we are short handed and hurrying to finish our chores so we can celebrate with our own family...well, it just seems these are days when all "you know what" breaks loose. 

And while you're offering up a prayer for the DF, say one for Mrs. The Farmer as well.   While the DF is busy doing his work, she is in the house dealing with 2 young punks who are looking at a Christmas Tree full of presents and telling said punks, "please wait for your daddy."  I am pretty sure she says it 150 times a minute.   She tries to occupy them with the traditional gift of the christmas poptart.   These poor kids have been getting poptarts for Christmas every year since they were able to eat solid foods.  Poptarts, in her opinion, are NOT a breakfast item.  We don't often have them in the house, they really are a delicacy around here.   But, her sanity can only hold out for so long.  Dealing with punks all jacked up on Christmas AND poptarts isn't as easy as it sounds.
