Merry Christmas Everyone !!



We would like to wish everyone a Wonderful Christmas and many joys in the new year ! Don't forget to take a moment today to think of everyone (including all the children in this world) that will be alone this Christmas ! Enjoy your family and friends during this special time of year.

Lisa, Pierre and our two little ones in Ethiopia !

Here is a song that fits really well with my Christmas posts today.(Thanks for sharing this Sheri).

Merry Christmas (by Third Day)

There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn

Crying for momma's arms

At an orphanage just outside a little China town

There the forgotten are

But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire

And dream about the day when I can finally call you mine

It's Christmas time again but you're not home

Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone

And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms

And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas

As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights

I'm warmed by the fire's glow

Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white

Make angels in the snow

But half a world away you try your best to fight the tears

And hope that heaven's angels come to carry you here

It's Christmas time again but you're not home

Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone

And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms

And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas

Christmas is a time to celebrate the holy childand we celebrate his perfect gift of love

He came to earth to give his lifeand prepare a place

for usso we could have a home with him above

It's Christmas time again and now you're home

Your family is here so you will never be alone

So tonight before you go to sleep, I'll hold you in my arms

And I'll tell you from my heart, and I'll you from my heart

I wish you Merry Christmas
