I think I have seen her blog before but then couldn't remember the name of it and could not find it again! Has that ever happened to you? <br />Thank you so much for your comment!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-83083950396206832302011-12-28T09:45:56.545-05:002011-12-28T09:45:56.545-05:00Kay, that was the sweetest story.

My kids have been in the Nativity plays here in OK too. Oh, I meant to tell you, we have a lovely blogger here in western Oklahoma named Sarah who is known as Brit Gal in the USA. Here's her blog: http://www.britgalusa.com/. If I remember right, she married her American pen pal.Dee/reddirtramblingshttp://www.reddirtramblings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-35962156434311304392011-12-27T17:27:17.612-05:002011-12-27T17:27:17.612-05:00Dear Jenny,
Thank you so much for your comment! So...Dear Jenny,<br />Thank you so much for your comment! So happy that you liked my photos of my husband and son!Had you heard of the story of the Santa letter? I love that story, imagine learning of it, a letter written by your own mother as a child! Perhaps I will wait to open my son's letter...as you say, I have waited this long!<br />Love that you listened to the songs that I put on here. This Beach Boys song was also on the very popular "Now That's What I Call Christmas" album from 1985 in England, do you remember it? (I lived in Eastbourne in 1985 and still have the album!)Oh dear, I may have to do a post about it!<br />Elvis, oh my, I love Elvis, I am afraid I will have to write about him too. He really loved to sing gospel music more than anything, he was just a good Southern boy at heart, you know.<br /><br /><br />I am so excited that I received your book, "The Mystery of Lewis Carroll" as a Christmas present, I can't wait to read it!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-38964115766567362322011-12-27T11:55:17.577-05:002011-12-27T11:55:17.577-05:00Thanks for this lovely Christmassy post! I love th...Thanks for this lovely Christmassy post! I love the photo of Richard's school nativity play because the kids are taking it all so seriously and not hamming it up for the camera. It's a really cute picture. <br /><br />Having waited so long, I might start to feel I could wait longer to open the dear little letter to Santa. I might feel that it was a link to the little child that once was and I want to keep it intact.<br /><br />It must have been strange for that guy to learn about his mother's letter. A "gold penny" I wonder if she meant a sovereign.....<br /><br />Bernie sounds like an amazing person and it's good that you and your family got to know him. Yes, your son looks overawed, and not surprising, meeting such an important person! :)<br /><br />I love to see little kids with that expression. <br /><br />I hadn't heard either of these songs, believe it or not, though the Beach Boys is instantly recognisable. I am so surprised the Elvis was new to me! <br /><br />I hope your holiday season has been wonderful so far and into 2012.Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-13187006058168483532011-12-26T10:53:21.950-05:002011-12-26T10:53:21.950-05:00Donna,

I think he might have had it very rough had he not had such a wonderful mother, she worked so hard to make him happy after his Dad died when he was only three years old. Happily, she re-married when Richard was 14 and he has had a wonderful Dad for all these years. (LOVE YOU JOAN & PETER!)<br />Our litle son was a jolly little fellow, he was usually grinning from ear to ear in any photo, but not in this one. He really was in awe every time he saw Santa. Do you think he looks like me or Richard? (C., that is, not Santa!)<br /><br />And I thank you so much for your advice to start my own blog. I honestly would never have done so without your encouragement. Look forward to reading what YOU write in 2012!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4716894977482967985.post-19646128087332403012011-12-24T02:11:49.299-05:002011-12-24T02:11:49.299-05:00Dear Kay, the story is here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/...Dear Kay, the story is here:<br />http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-16301048<br /><br />It is very sweet and maybe I'll tell it to my family and friends tonight when we gather at my parents' for Christmas Eve.<br /><br />Yes, Richard as Joseph looks a bit shy, but I also think I can detect a twinkle in his eye that means he enjoys life and was - I hope - generally a happy little boy.<br />By the way, I am very glad that you listened to my encouragement when I said to you time and time again you really should start your own blog!<br /><br />And I am looking forward to reading lots more from you in 2012.<br /><br />Merry Christmas!Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.com
