Happy 17th Birthday Hannah
Hannah Ruth was born at home on December 19th, 1989 at 6:54 a.m. We all celebrated with happy tears that snowy winter morning. I wrote out her birth certificate by hand at the kitchen table that morning. Her name means grace and favor. She has the grace of God on her and her favor and beauty are from the Lord. She has been such a delight to me since I first held her beside the Christmas tree that Christmas night. My heart was so happy when she was born I was inspired to write a poem about it.

Christmas Secrets
I love Christmas time. All the decorations, the lights, the fragrances and festive sounds. I love the excitement in the air. I love the feasts and festivals. I love to give and receive gifts. I can’t help but think that one of the regrets of life will be that we did not give more, that we did not retain the generous spirit of Christmas throughout the year.
One memory of giving that I’m sure I will carry with me beyond the grave happened at Christmas in 1986. I had no money but Christmas was coming and Lois’ love language is gifts. I knew I had to do something. [Read more…] about Christmas Secrets
