Another year opens with snowflakes falling silent, racuous children in the small space of the van, wild hilarity opening white elephant gifts, gold wine sparkling in glasses, a shared bottle of champagne - moment of romance after the children fall asleep after midnight - the long kiss for the new year. This 2012 will find me continuing to count blessings as they fall as silent, stealthy from the hand of the Father.
