DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR?

Said the night wind to the little lamb,
"Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite,
With a tail as big as a kite."

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,
"Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song high above the trees
With a voice as big as the the sea,
With a voice as big as the the sea."

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,
"Do you know what I know?
In your palace warm, mighty king,
Do you know what I know?
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold~
Let us bring him silver and gold,
Let us bring him silver and gold."

Said the king to the people everywhere,
"Listen to what I say!
Pray for peace, people, everywhere,
Listen to what I say!
The Child, the Child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light,
He will bring us goodness and light."

Christmas for us

Christmas time means different things for different people. At our house we have many fun activities that we partake in throughout the season. There are always coloring pages colored and taped up around the house. I have a great link for those. There is usually something yummy cooking in the stove, sugar cookies, cakes, and other goodies to give to neighbors. We LOVE decorating the house with lights. We are slowly but surely going with LED lights. For this we hit the stores the day after Christmas to get good deals! We also enjoy driving around with hot cocoa and looking at other people's lights. I have been lucky enough to get together with friends to bake treats, that is always fun! I even listen to Christmas music all year long. There is a great link for that too. Anyway, traditions run deep and I am happy to share ours with you. Have a blessed Holiday!
