MERRY CHRISTMAS!!


Painting by Federico Fiori Barocci 1597 - Del Prado, Madrid

I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!
This time of year, I am reminded of all of the blessings in my life and, for me, the Greatest Gift that was ever given, Jesus. I'd also like to include my very best wishes for those of you who celebrate Hanukkah, Kwanza or something else entirely. I am grateful for all of you readers who take the time to visit this blog throughout the year and leave your supportive comments.  I am taking a few days off to celebrate with my family and friends, but I look forward to seeing you in the New Year and wish you and yours all the best!!
