Jesus First Christmas

Jesus First Christmas


Jesus
How do you remember 
Your First Christmas? 
Did You wonder at the sound of Your own new voice? 
Can you still feel that love that wrapped You snuggly in swaddled clothes as Mary held You close? Could there ever have been too many kisses on Your downy little head? Can you still hear Mary's soft lullabies? 
When Joseph first held You, did Your heavenly Father look on with longing? Did Your wave Your amazing little fingers fro Him to see? 
Did the star look as bright to You from Bethlehem looking up?
 Did the hay tickle Your toes?
 Did the little lambs nuzzle their noses in Your face when Mary wasn't looking? 
Were the shepherds out of breath when they arrived? 
When the wisemen finally arrived, did they understand how amazing it was to see that the Lord of all Creation would humbly crawl into our world on chubby little hands and knees?


Thank you for looking

The Comfy Couch

This is my Comfy Couch for my Imagination Station  
so that while I am working 
I can have my husband, family or friend siting comfortably 


As you can see my assistants Nubian and Sheba are making sure it good enough.
They approve and I think they are the ones that will be taking it over. 



Wedding Quilt Lay Out

The wing has a red stone because my ring turn different colors under different lighting
and it will turn red under Black lights

The book is the Bible with our Wedding chapter I Corinthians 13


We were married on Valentine's Day 

The broom that we jump on our Wedding Day
has our birth stones in the flowers
his stone it the Pearl and mine is Garnet

and the Cupcake is for our 
Cupcake Wedding Cake



Negative Space

The top picture is of the Supermarket where we brought our food
and the bottom picture is of the cabin we stayed in
