Merry Christmas
Just back from the late service at Holy Trinity -- by myself, because Shelly is well-known to turn into a pumpkin after about 10:00 p.m., and because we also went to the 4:00 service this afternoon in anticipation of her not making it to tonight's service.
It was a nice service, with a hymn in Tagalog, the national language of the Philippines, that I didn't understand, but found very beautiful.
We'll be opening gifts in a few hours, then picking up Shelly's friends John and Davina at their hotel in Makati and spending a couple days with them at our house. They're in the country from Saipan, where John is a teacher.
I still have some gifts to wrap. I know that my early-to-bed, early-to-rise bride will be waking me up much too early on Christmas morning.
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We'll leave for midnight mass in about 2 1/2 hours from this writing... At least our presents are wrapped and under the tree.
Merry Christmas to you both and to your families as well. We may just have a "white" Christmas here in IL tomorrow morning! Hope Santa is good to you!!
