Oh the Places We Go...

Merry Christmas!

2011 has been almost heaven

In paradisiacal OC

So temperate and bright

It’s been a delight

But now on to Utah we’ll be

Lara and Adam can no longer fathom

Quiet and peace before 9 (pm)

But with kids loud and sweet

Their life feels complete

So adding one more seemed just fine

Caleb the boy, Lucy the joy,

And Josephine feisty as ever.

Growing taller and sweeter,

Cuter and leaner.

They surprise us with quotes oh so

clever.

Anastasiya,* so nice to meet ya

Arrived safe and sound in the fall

Received her long name

‘Cause we served in Ukraine.

She’s the most angelic of us all.

Caleb the boy, Lucy the joy,

And Josephine feisty as ever.

Growing taller and sweeter,

Cuter and leaner.

They surprise us with quotes oh so

clever.

We hope this past year has brought

you good cheer

And blessings from heaven above.

This Christmas season,

We remember the reason

For our Savior has bought us with love.

Merry Christmas!
