a poem in my pocket

oh JOY, joy, joy threefold

we celebrate this day

as year is growing old

oh joy, JOY, joy threefold

may our own faith be bold

God hears us when we pray

oh joy, joy, JOY threefold

we celebrate this day!

Much to celebrate this season with Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. Our family also celebrates three milestones for our newest granddaughter, Maggie Mae: healthy birth (Nov. 28), successful heart surgery (Dec. 12), and homecoming (Dec. 24)! Thank you for your prayers.
