First Light

Hot cranberry scones just out of the oven waiting for all the kids and grandkids to arrive for the day to begin. I love the early morning with my cup of coffee and yummy smells to just sit and take in the silence and reflect on what christmas is truely about, the birth of my Savior. Soon the house will fill with squeals and laughter and rude comments( it's not all tinsel and mistletoe) and the day will take on a life of it's own. But for now I will soak in the silence and remember the story of that first Christmas morning. Merry Christmas to you all!
