A "Merry Christmas"
Just had to add this clever take on “Twas a night Before Christmas” as the politically correctness has gotten way out of hand…*Twas the month before Christmas*When all through our land,*Not a Christian was praying*Nor taking a stand.*See the PC Police had taken away,*The reason for Christmas – no one could say.*The children were told by their schools not to sing,*About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.*It might hurt people’s feelings, the teachers would say* December 25th is just a ‘ Holiday ‘.*Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit*Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!*CDs from Madonna, …Read more […..]

Thanksgiving was busy, busy, busy! Emma got to go to Grandma & grandpa’s and played with her cousins Lauren & Nicole. She really loves Lauren since she is younger than Nicole. I think Lauren is about 8 or 9 and Nicole is 13. Emma kept Nicole busy that is for sure! Emma also got to “play” with her 95(I think) year old Bucia. Funny how she has always been attracted to her…Maybe because she sees her as somewhat of a child? Bucia loved it too! Watching her, she looks at Emma with a wonderment that rivals my own!
