Dec 29..On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me...four calling birds..which represent the four gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke, John which proclaim the gospel news of Christ.
The new song to the same tune...On the fourth day of Christmas Jesus gave to me love for all men, Peace in my heart, Everlasting life and Salvation full and free.

My picture collection of memories today is teddy bears. Separate from all other toys and books, I loved to play with my bears any where and in all situations, I probably took them sledding...
and I know they did a lot of book reading and being read to...

and I imagined them doing all things and taking the roles of people in stories. I still have my first teddy made from grandma's fur coat and many since then from many different people and times of needing comfort or love.

Merry Christmas Teddy.
