CHRISTmas eve-----a doting son comes to call

Gisela did fall asleep in her "new" bed around 7pm. I ate some soup. Skyped with Gene in Thailand and went to bed about 8:30pm.
I woke up at 10pm to find Ollie telling his "mum" how much he loved her.
I fed her some more medication and he helped her wash it down with water from a small sponge.
So the first night is underway.
I started to look back (again!) how many Christmas eves we have spent together.
When they were very young getting up about this same time to put each "pile" of presents under the tree.
Those early times with both my mother and Omi 1
I missed going to church for the "Candlelight" service. God had me involved a much more important "work" like Oliver telling Gisele how MUCH I love her.
Christmas day is approaching. We will proclaim the birth of our savior who came to save the world.
My simple prayer is to have as MANY days as possible with "My Beloved".
I know she has to "go" but..................
