Sarah (1), Erin (4), Emily (2), Kelia (5), Anna (3)

These years, Christmas might be the only time we see all 5 of our girls together. Sarah flew home for a few days from Pittsburgh. Emily drove up from Boston. Anna is at home for a few weeks on her way to grad school in Santa Fe in January. Erin came down from college in Farmington and Kelia up from HART School of Music. Traditionally the extended family gathers for Christmas Eve at one of my wife, Carol’s, sister’s home. We were just back so my girls are still in their party clothes. 🙂

My hope for you all is that the spirit brought into this world by the birth of the baby Jesus would pervade your lives and the lives of those you love…today and every day. Merry Christmas.
