Yes the song is one of the most beautiful Christmas songs I’ve heard, as well. And this statement says so much about growing up/older: “There were sorrows just outside the glowing edges of my memories that were breaking the hearts of those who loved me.” May it be that I do the same for my kids for a time. Love to you all!
I'm so glad you like the song. I will tell Randy you said so, GinaMarie. I so want my children's lives to be free of pain and sorrow... This is one of the most beautiful and hardest things about being a parent--making their lives as uncomplicated as possible, translating all the things that happen through the language of love and joy and peace. Something that has been on my mind a lot lately... Sending love to you and your family! Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas, Mackenzie - to you and your dear family. Thank you for this beautiful piece...it's so resonant with what I've been reflecting on these past years, and I'm brought to tears by your beautiful words. And printing this out to hold onto in my journal!
Kristin, this means so much to me. Thank you so much for letting me know that this resonates with you. (And it will be an honor to have words in your journal.) Sending love to you and your family, too. Merry Christmas and a happy, hopeful New Year to you.

Thank you for this, Mackenzie. We are both joyful and completely desperate as we plead for Him to come, and you captured this.
