Christ in the Empty Chair
“Christmas is built upon a paradox--that a homeless
birth should be celebrated in every home.”
--Leah Hall
With vaccine cards and masks in hand,
my family gathers from all points to
celebrate Christmas together for the first time
in two years. It will be at
my home. It will bustle with nine
grand-children, tall tales, hugs and holiday
cheer. Down with chaos, up with Love.

Soo good for you... so wonderful to break the solitude at last... we have been living apart for way too long.

My sentiment exactly: Down with chaos, up with Love. How wonderful this all sounds. Family! And my your family gathering be lively to last you the entire year. Merry Christmas/Happy holidays. Thanks for sharing.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas celebrating with family! Christ is the reason for it all and often the gift we don't open.
Enjoy Glenn. Your heart must be so full! There'll be an end to Covid soon I think.
