twas the week before Christmas…


and all through the house just one creature was stirring, for sure not a mouse.

The colorful papers were wrapped into shape by Pretty whose hands never made a mistake.

Her gifts were bought with the greatest of care throughout the year from here, there and everywhere

But now came the question that brought such a fright amidst wrapping papers in the morn’s early light:

What on earth did I do with all of those gifts for 2022?

******************

Meanwhile, I offer support without stirring in front of the fire but cheering on Pretty whose care I admire.

Ok. That’s enough. Somebody stop me. The Grinch in me is done.

Pretty has always been the heart of our holidays.

      Felt bad for your French team Sunday – very close!
      Our little girls are out from preschool for two weeks! We will have our hands full…but for sure lots of laughter supplied by Ella who never hesitates to say Naynay, I am not talking to you. I’m talking to Nana.

        It was a shame but such a wonderful match. You may have your hands full but you’ll be crying with joy all the time.
