Taking Down the Christmas Decorations

We are now ready to start taking down the "Christmas tree ornaments." If you remember, about two months ago I wrote a post talking about my family already having some Christmas ornaments up. ( http://sweet-adeleine.blogspot.com/2015/10/prepping-for-christmas.html ) I was of course talking about the orange tree that had begun to bear some green fruit. Now, two months later, the oranges are finally turning orange.


Like I said before, I find it humorous that God gives us perfect little "Christmas ornaments" that change color and come off the tree when Christmas is over!

  1. I think it is wonderful that God ripens this fruit just at the perfect time of year that everyone needs a daily intake of Vitamin C. "To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen." Jude 1:25

  3. It's always good to see God in the "little things" of life. He's everywhere. I like the new look too!

  4. The new design seems lighter, happier, and more youthful. Good job.
    Also, we have several fruit trees now and I love it when the peaches start turning or the apples. It's fun to watch them every day....watching for that perfect ripeness. :)

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
