Count it all joy*

by chuckofish

Our little family group had a joyful Christmas with lots of baby holding…

…good food…

…and drink…

…presents…

and more baby holding…

and lots of sitting around talking which is the best of all.

We are recovering today and feeling sad and weepy because our precious angel and her darling Mommy and Daddy are driving home to far away Maryland. But you’ve got to take the bitter with the sweet. We are grateful they were able to visit and we look forward to our next get-together.

Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

*James 1:2
