Rushing in and out for Christmas and farm work, I sat for a 1/2 sec w/a cupa tea and this video ... What an instant peace it brought. Love the boy skating. Thank you. So glad you are feeling the Christmas spirit and enjoying the season this year.

I just "felt" it was my son out there skating, I miss watching him do that, watching him play hockey.

I was/am a big fan of Joni Mitchell since the early 70's--this is her song, you know. Sarah does a beautiful job of it. I've put this on my blog along with several thoughts. Am going to take a little stroll around your blog for a few moments.

There is a room that is decorated in old fashioned tradition - I can't remember if it was the Pa Dutch section or not. But they actually used boughs to make a tree on the wall rather than having a real tree in the house. Trees inside didn't come til much later, so your husband must be very old fashioned! But I think he loves you very much. :) <br />You are so lucky to have the magic of the younger kids around you at the holiday too. One thing I miss as my kids being older is that magical expression and wonder on thier little faces.Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034694477287343258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4296284051502496327.post-63238779512239075512010-12-15T20:04:52.361-05:002010-12-15T20:04:52.361-05:00Oh my skating stars...how I love that video & ...Oh my skating stars...how I love that video & song.

My husband told me she probably wouldn't be allowed to have a candle in her dorm room and he was right. And I was so glad because I got to keep it. And I ended up giving her something else that year.
