It's our privilege to make telephone calls to our dear mom and cousin in South Africa and have a scintillating skype-time with our Schmidt children and grandchildren in Germany: our sweet Michael, Isabelle, Josie and Evie. We could scarcely believed that the gifts we chose with lots of love and posted on 17 December arrived in time. We were as hyped up as they when they opened the Christmas parcels! And now we are waiting for our Sanders children and grandchildren to wake up in New Zealand after their Christmas which has already come and gone.
And so, though we are by ourselves at home, we are content, using every means of communication.
An overflow of this joy………
And here is our Christmas 2012 card designed for our loved ones and anyone who may find themselves on this page – yeah you whether we are in contact on face book or not.
Have a brilliant Christmas! A lot of life-change happens around a table and the happiest of moments are ours when we give. Christmas doesn't have to be one that is off the chart as to what people think is a Christmas with the X-factor. You may be all by yourself, you may be heart-broken. We know something of that kind of Christmas...take heart, here's good news.
