Prepping for Christmas

Some of our ornaments are already out and hung on a tree in preparation for Christmas. And we have some premium ornaments, too; they change colors during the months! They start off a nice dark green that blends in with the leaves around them, and slowly melt into a bright orange color.


If you have not figured it out yet, we have some orange trees in our orchard, and they are already preparing to give my family some fruit. Seems to me like a sense of humor by God to give us such pretty ornaments that turn orange during Christmas months!

With Apologies to Robert Frost

I have a class for school called Speech. This is supposed to help me learn how to stand properly while speaking, pronounce words properly, and so on. The most recent section is on how to give meaning and feeling to a  poem when reading one out loud. My teacher, Mrs. Autrey, has been reciting poems to us as examples, and she uses a variety such as happy poems, sad poems, thoughtful and so on. One of them that caught my attention was a funny remake of the famous poem "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost.   The original is one of my favorite poems, and I have always loved the other poetic works of Robert Frost. Here is the original poem: Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening By Robert Frost   Whose woods these are I think I know.    His house is in the village though;    He will not see me stopping here    To watch his woods fill up with snow.    My little horse must think it queer
