A Glimmer of Hope

light a candle

light the dark

light the world

light a heart or two

light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

I see the stirrings of hearts mending within my family. I see the Lord's light shining on the ones I love. I think Christmas miracles might just still happen in this world. I wish they all could just see each other how I see each of them. We're all God's children. Each beautiful in so many ways. Let there be forgiveness and fresh starts. Let hearts be open and understanding. We are all so blessed in so many ways. Truly blessed. Life is too short to dwell on so much negativity and toxic. It's time for us to light our family from within. God has great plans for all of us.

So tonight I light a candle for me and a candle for each of them. Let their be peace this season and each of us be Christ's light to one another.

By the way the lyrics are by Avalon. Very beautiful song. Listen if you get a chance.

My Grandmother would be proud!

I know my grandmother was looking down on me today and smiling with joy! I've begun to truly learn to sew! I've wanted to learn this and crocheting too, but a busy life with little ones a foot seems to distract me from my best intentions at times. It took me two hours today, but I finished a sweet little pillow for a special someone at Christmas. It's a flower pattern fleece in purples and pinks. The thing I am most proud of is that one end has three sweet buttons as the closure. Who knew I could do something like that! The possibilities are endless for 2010! I see curtains, sweet little dresses for baby girl and cute pants for little man in my future!
