7th Day of Christmas

"The Twelve Days of Christmas" - Laurel Long

We celebrate the 12 days of Christmas which begin on the day after Christmas Day, December 26. Even though the needles are falling off the tree little by little, it still looks lovely and festive. Our Christmas carols still play. At night our tree and wreath lights sparkle and reflect in the dark windows, fascinating our 1-year-old granddaughter.

The three grandkids' play has toys around the house in unexpected places. Our dogs are shedding so add fur to the bits and pieces of wrapping paper left on the living room floor; it could use a good cleaning. My daughters say don't bother, vacuum after they leave! And often throughout the day, a little chaos ensues. Two 1-year-olds and one 4-year-old make for a busy mix. 

One thing that has all three grandkids interested, even enthralled, is a music video by The Piano Guys. Their rendition of "Angels We Have Heard on High" is so creative and fun, the kids want to watch it over and over. I recommend it!

Oh, and I wish you a Happy New Year filled with blessings!
