Gifting Love at Christmas By Larry Chadwick Happy Holidays It didn’t take a holiday, To make me feel this strong. I’ve always had these feelings, They’ve been there all along. It’s just that holidays are special, As you have always been. The perfect time for telling, How much I love you once again. So during this wonderful time of year, My love I wanted to wrap as a present. But that there isn’t enough wrapping paper, To package my love; I hope you won’t resent. It can’t be contained beneath this decorated tree, Or encompassed by our hearth. But what a lovely setting, To give you all my heart. December 9, 2002 If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

 (smiles) Loved ones and church bell rings and the voices of carolers and snow angels are some of my favorite things during this time of year! (big hugggsssssss) I believe no time of year gets loved ones closer together than this, and that is why I go by the name Mistletoe Angel here, to encourage everyone to live each day like it is Christmas, and I don't mean get presents for everyone everyday, but to give and share the love and let it fill every young child with the comfort like Jesus had with the three men who watched over him when he was given birth! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Larry, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Dearest Muys, What a sweetheart you are. What a joy it would be to visit you for Christmas and deliver to you my affection. Thank you so much. Merry Christmas.  Nik, It seems to me you have all the tools you need. And thanks for such kind words. Merry Christmas.  Kethry, I knew your imagination would come in handy. LOL And thank you dear girl. Happy Holidays. Sue, Thank you. Hope you have a Merry Christmas. M, Bless you for your generosity. And thank you for reading. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
