African Violet



I hope you had a happy Christmas. Ours was very nice. I accompanied a vocal trio, a violin duet and a cello solo in our church service Sunday morning. Monday we visited neighbors with jars of homemade Concord grape jelly. Tuesday we had fettuccine Alfredo and carrot cake with our kids and with theirs. Wednesday we opened presents and made waffles and turkey sausage for breakfast. Then we went to my mother’s house where we opened even more presents, ate far too much and watched an awful lot of Doctor Who. Best of all we got to spend time with the WHOLE family, including two great-nephews and three grandsons who are growing up just like weeds. We even chatted with a niece serving her mission a thousand miles away. It was the best of Christmases; not because of the lights or the food or the music, but because we got to spend it with people we love.
