My wish to all today is that you are able to be with your nearest and dearest. Hoping that next Christmas my overseas children will be traveling freely again.
Merry Christmas all.

  Imagine someone so miserable that they down-tick such a post on Christmas morning!
  
  Merry Christmas to all, even the down-tickers of the world.

A Blessed Christmas to our host and his family and thanks for many years of provision of the best, most informative read in New Zealand.
And to all the moderators and commenters who make Kiwiblog what it is.

Happy Christmas everyone. Hope its a fun day.

The arrival of Jesus into the world may be a bit ho hum for some, even relegated to the world of myths and make believe but few would deny his message of love, peace, forgiveness, sacrifice and grace has impacted individuals, communities and nations and helped build an unparalleled strong culture, even civilisation alongside democracy and capitalism. We need these values now more than ever.

The pirozhki (little cabbage pies) defeated hubby & Me yesterday…the bread dough was too sticky… so Hubby said.. just make a Pirog (one big cabbage pie).

Heck, why didn’t he say that 45 years ago?

Now, to start on the trifle… but as a T.T., I never have booze on my mind..and I’ve just discovered there’s no sherry in the house…

I wonder if the whanau will notice if I substitute with vodka instead?

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you all have a fantastic day of fun, food, family, presents, and above all, joy. Seeing the excitement on my children’s faces this morning was a highlight after a fairly challenging year.

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14

  Given the times we live in, I think one of my favourite Biblical passages is appropriate, helping us to consider the bigger picture and to keep fighting:
  
  2nd Corinthians 4:16-18
  
  16
  Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
  
  17
  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
  
  18
  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Merry Christmas to all in the Kiwiblog community. I will be making a conscious effort to stay offline for the next week and maximise family time. May you all get a taste of the miracle of Christmas today ?
