TUESDAY - December 19[/size]<br />
<br />
Good Morning Crazies....A busy day here in Pa today - the tree is up and the lights are on it and granddaughter is coming to put the ornaments on it today.  I think it is the prettiest tree we have ever had (Jim says I say that every year but this year IT IS)  We went to the town square yesterday with GD&#39;s little pre-school.  It was soooo cute.  12 little 4 year olds standing around the manger singing - missing 3/4 of the words but for the finale they really belted out &quot;Happy Birthday&quot; to baby Jesus.  I must admit I had more than a few tears in my eyes but noticed I wasn&#39;t the only one.  We could not help but laugh last night when she told us her version of the first Christmas.  Until last night I never realized a manger was the same thing as a farmer and I really had no idea Jesus&#39; father (Joses) was a magician??????  However I was aware that his mother liked to ride donkeys&#33;&#33;&#33; I had no idea Mary had a pet donkey named Dominick though&#33;&#33;  The innocense of children is amazing.   <br />

Hope everyone has a great day - don&#39;t forget your smile - especially if you venture out to the malls.
