Merry Christmas everyone

[prof_irina]

I haven’t got round to doing cards this year - we’re still on birth announcements! - and so I’m feeling very bad, particularly as some of you have sent me such lovely cards and gifts. So I’m doing this post instead to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and share some things I’ve been thinking over the last few months.

I think that is a mother's bias to think their baby is the most beautiful. For once I would love to see a mother who thinks her baby is ugly (for there are an awful lot of ugly and/or funny looking babies out there) :p

Well as a father, I didn't think my oldest was the most beautiful baby ever, maybe not quite ugly. On the other hand, my second son was beyound a doubt the most beautiful baby ever (I will say Xavi ranks up there with my 3rd, 3 of my grand-kids and a grand-niece :D )

That was so beautiful.
Sigh you are prly right about resolutions are made to be broken. I find that that particular one, even if I make it every month, is usually broken within a week. When I am feeling really hopeless, I try to remember what God told Joshua in Jos chpt 7 (very loosely paraphrased) "Get up, sanctify yourself, and try again" Or as I loved to teach it, it's all well and good, that you've fallen on your face before me, after trying it your way, and failing, now, get up, get busy, because the job still needs to be done, only this time time do it My way.
We truly have an awesome God.
Thank you for sharing.
