An old fashioned Christmas wish from our house to yours.
A long time in the making
finding things here and there
to give our home a primitive Christmas sort of flair.
Refurbishing wreaths and creating things from
things I've used before.
Hauling things up from the basement
and framing a thought from my heart.
Thinking of Christmas time of long ago
and pulling it all together so
everyone will know
and how fortunate we are that
God sent us a Savior
If our greatest need had been information,
God would have sent us an educator.
If our greatest need had been technology,
God would have sent us a scientist.
If our greatest need had been money,
God would have sent us an economist.
If our greatest need had been pleasure,
God would have sent us an entertainer.
But our greatest need was forgiveness,
so God sent us a Savior.

Hopped over here from Granny's Place. Your house is so cozy and lovely! I love the way you hung those heart-shaped baskets. If I can find any, I'm going to steal that idea for a Valentine's Day decoration.
