Homecoming Christmas

Homecoming Christmas

Beauty unfolds before my eyes,
Gold sun sets in Tennessee skies.
Flying through clouds of pink and blue…
A homecoming Christmas with you.

Willkommen Zuhause, welcome home!
Ti amo, I love you from Rome.
Un Joyeux Noël s’il te plaît…
A homecoming Christmas with you.

Peaceful dusk, faith and hope abound
As tiny snowflakes dance around.
I feel glad tidings flowing through…
A homecoming Christmas with you.

Beauty unfolds before my eyes…
A homecoming Christmas with you.

Greetings, Family and Friends! I hope you are all enjoying the next few days before Christmas. This is just a little ditty I penned on the road. We made it to Florida Thursday afternoon, and had beautiful driving weather both days. It is a whirlwind time with Katie, Brenton, Posie and Hatcher! Everything is warp speed and there’s no time for rest around these sweet, energetic kiddos. Lots of playing, chasing, snuggling and fun. Posie is obsessed with my makeup bag and insists on having me apply a specific red or pink lipstick each day to go with her outfit. Our hearts are full this year being able to spend Christmas with them. The excitement and pure joy are magical. Next Tuesday we are making our way southeast to spend some time with Vince and Natalie. It’s the complete opposite there – they love to just stay home and chill! So we can rest up before we start our drive back north.

I won’t be online as much in the coming week, as we are making the most of our family time. We are exhausted each night, but with smiles on our faces, full hearts and gratitude. I wish each of you a lovely, peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Xoxo
Colleen
