I ...Wow - I'm so glad you all liked the Mary post. I had been really struggling this Christmas season with "how can I help my family really celebrate Jesus?" This wonderful idea of a "simple Christmas" was presented to us at MOPS and it brought tears to all of our eyes.

I did find the feather tree and the pretty pink ornaments at Zeller's last week. I love them. Also found some great pinks at our Canadian Tire if you have seen those around!! Girls are saying "A tire store"... but oh it's more than that trust me.<BR/>Merry Christmas <BR/>Claudie from Canada<BR/>P.S.

Mary, if how I understand the scripture, was just opposite to the 'oh so human and impatient me' is under pressure. But I (along with a LOT of help from God) am working on it. <BR/><BR/>thank you for sharing, what a blessing to have read this from your daughter, and thank you for sharing it!Being Mrs Mileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010129855224351564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5482188852407179908.post-82858788561282462652008-12-14T20:49:00.000-05:002008-12-14T20:49:00.000-05:00This is so beautiful, your daughter is right.

Having given birth and witnessed some of my grandchildren being born, the Savior's birth had to be very difficult on the young Mary.

There's a beautiful song, "Mary, Did You Know" that I'm thinking about.

I too have a daughter and I realize everyday that she is no longer my "little girl" but a grown up, mature, complex, Christian woman. Mary is one of the great woman of the Bible. Thanks for helping us to see her in a fresh way at this time of the year.Musings of A Ministerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15991359333687288549noreply@blogger.com
