Merry Christmas
I just wanted to write a short note wishing everyone a Merry Christmas on this beautiful day. We have family coming to visit (actually, two of them are asleep in the living room as I write this) and gifts will be exchanged. Much food has been cooked and there is more to prepare. As we all gather at our homes for dinner and fellowship, with relatives coming from far and near, let us remember the reason we celebrate this day. Jesus Christ was probably not born on December 25, but does that really matter? We have set this day aside to celebrate his birth and to take the time to be with our family and friends. We will all probably eat too much and may have to double up on the treadmill time to help get rid of the excess weight, but there is nothing wrong with enjoying our time with those we love. May you have a good and blessed day and Merry Christmas to you all.

Larry, thanks for all you do and your friendship, though I’ve never met you in person. You are a wonderful person. May your family rejoice in the hope which Christ’s birth brings to everyone who believes on his name. There’s family coming to our house, too, and we are going to enjoy being together on this day of celebration. Be blessed, my brother.
Thanks, Ron. We are settled down now, everyone has left and it’s just me, Randi, and my wife, Tammy. It’s been a good day.
