It's Christmas at the Hood's ~

It's Christmas! and the tree is up~

Even the Christmas elf is watching to see

what he can report back to Santa on!

Here's to enjoying the holidays

with calmness, laughter, delight,

and prayers of thanksgiving.

What a beautiful time of the year~

**Update on Kristy Gray: she came through both surgeries well; one to repair the damage to her back and spine, the other to repair the shoulder and clavical; both sets of surgeons are claiming success; Brian's father is asking special prayers tonight for Brian, as I'm sure the events of the last few days is just now catching up with him; I shall keep you posted. Please keep this sweet christian family on your prayer list. There is a post below that will give you an address and links for further info and ways to help. To God be the Glory!**
