Is part of your holiday tradition making lots of sweet treats? It was for my mom, and she had a funny little trick that made her cookies, pastries and candies seem even more special (if that was possible)... You need to know a bit about my mom before I share her clever ploy. She raised six children, pretty much on her own. My dad died at 42 years old. I was nine, and my siblings ranged from five to eighteen years old. She was an amazing woman and one of her mottos was 'Always stay one step ahead of them! (us kids)'. And she did.
Since I was a child, I've long believed at the stroke of midnight on Christmas Eve ~ the Animals gather from farm & field to offer their voices ~ to us which they yield: "a Happy Christmas to one and all" ... then head wearily back to their stall or branch, nest or burrow deep into the night and whisper a sleepy "...to all aGood Night!" ©L.Brechlin 2016 〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰 Well, that's they way I see it anyway... what better time for our beloved fur, feathered & finned friends ~ to become magically outspoken but on Christmas Eve? I remember fighting sleep each year waiting for a chance to hear tiny voices from our kittens ~ that I imagined would sound something like a baby talking in a high-pitch. {but, then again at that age I believed I could hear the stars twinkling at night too} ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ ✴ My love for animals has no bounds, and I will gladly sacrifice any morsel of food I have to one who is hungry ~ or happily kneel in dirt to gently pat one who may be scared or hurt. oh we could learn so much from them... if we'd only listen. here are a few {ok, ALOT} of my favorite antique Christmas postcards depicting animals ~ found these all on Pinterest... my very favorite, of course are the kittens & cats: ~ for my dog-loving friends: and various others ~ and remember all of our woodland friends too: Happy Christmas Eve to you! Blessings from the Farm ~ Peter, Lori & Hannah
