Dear Santa Claus
by chuckofish
And the Lord will guide you continually,
and satisfy your desire with good things,
and make your bones strong;
and you shall be like a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters fail not.–Isaiah 58:11 (RSV)

What do you want for Christmas? All I want is the usual–for everyone in my family to be happy with the gifts I give them. I would also like my eyebrows and eyelashes to grow back. 😑
By the way, the wee babes turned three on Wednesday!


They are still pretty little, but they’ve come a long way, haven’t they?

One and a half pounds!
They never cease to amaze me.

Yes, Santa came to the NICU!
Although there are two weekends before Christmas, I know that this is the last weekend when I will actually be able to get much done, so that is my plan. Maybe we’ll even get the tree up. (Maybe not.) How about you?
While I am getting things done, I will be listening to Christmas music. Here’s one of my favorite carols, based on an old Longfellow poem, and sung by Casting Crowns.
You can read the poem here.

Don’t forget to relax this weekend!
I plan to sleep in!
NICU Santa was pretty amazing. Enjoy your weekend!
I hope I get to talk to you this weekend!
