Sorry this is a day late. I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's eve and day. 2009 was a rough year for me as it was for many others. Let face it, the whole decade was a rough one as someone pointed out to me. So it is my prayer that this year and decade may be a better one for all. Happy 2010.

As I and my family celebrate this Christmas and open our gifts I would like to take time to mention the best gift of all:
Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terrified, but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!
“For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
By His grace are you saved. . . it is the gift of God
God bless you all.
Merry Christmas!

The Carol of the Bells has always been one of my favorite Christmas carols but I had never really learn the lyrics to it. So this year I decided to look it up and share it with my friends. Any mistakes are mine.

The Carol of the Bells
(Originally composed Mykola Dmytrovych Leontovych)
(English language version by Peter Wilhousky)
Hark how the bells,
sweet silver bells,
all seem to say,
throw cares away
Christmas is here,
bringing good cheer,
to young and old,
meek and the bold,
ding dong ding
that is their song
with joyful ring
all caroling
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
one seems to hear
words of good cheer
from everywhere
filling the air
Oh how they pound,
raising the sound,
o'er hill and dale,
telling their tale,
Gaily they ring
while people sing
songs of good cheer,
Christmas is here,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
On on they send ,
on without end,
their joyful tone to every home
Dong Ding dong ding, dong Bong

Through the grace of God I will be getting my new apartment today.
I will be off line for awhile until I can get my computer back up and running and my internet access moved.
Thank you to all who prayed for us. Your prayers have helped.

I am at a friends home tonight. The kids are still at their dad's house, but we will celebrate the 4th together. Have received word from another friend that she is going to help us find a new place to live and a place to keep what is left of our stuff until I can get the new place set up.
I miss my cats so much. Even though I know they are in a better place it hurts my heart to think of them. They were sweet and loyal conpanions.
We lost a lot. But the most important thing is that we are all alive and uninjured. I cannot praise God enough for his protection. It could have been so much worse.

I need your prayers. The apartment caught on fire tonight. Everyone got out all right, but I loss all of my cats. Also everything in Williams room was lost. I am at the Comfort Suites paid for by the fire department. The kids are with my ex husband.
Well it seems that the earth has managed to make it around the sun once again and I am another year older.
Sorry about the double post. I did not realize that my first post had made it through. but I will not be deleting either post due to the fact I have comments on both.
