Secret Sister

At church, instead of Secret Pals, we have Secret Sisters. My secret sister didn’t really do much early in the year, but she’s been spot on for a while now. I was also sadly negligent to my secret sister in the beginning because I mis-placed the sheet of paper, so I have no ill will toward the one with my name in her pocket.

For my birthday, this secret sister gave me an incredible gift! I not only adore cats, but also the artist Charles Wysocki. He created fun cat art and many other enchanting paintings over his career. Yet, I am highly doubtful my secret sister knows this. I don’t hide my appreciation of cats, so that part of the gift might be expected. I was truly delighted to find the two together: Wysocki and a cat. Hmmmm…. who is this sensational sister?!?!

Even my deary appreciates such a fun gift! Thank you, secret sister!

Christmas Card Lane

Small 1Kalamazoo, Michigan has a special treat during the Christmas season. It is a single street where many of the homeowners put out a Christmas Card for all to drive by and see.

Small 2Our one and only drive, if we even took one down this lane at the holidays, was on Christmas Eve. My parents and I would go to the Christmas Eve service at church. The service would end singing “Silent Night” by candlelight.

Small 3On the wintery drive home, we’d take time to drive down Christmas Card lane.

Small 4It is a delight to journey this road at night, Christmas Carols playing on the radio, with friends and family in the car to enjoy the sights.

I wouldn’t trade these memories for anything.
