Happy birthdays to Mom, Adriana, and Uncle Adrian!
And a merry Christmas to all.

"In sweet accordancy of praise and love,

The singing waters run;

And sunset mountains wear in light above

The smile of duty done;

Sure stands the promise,—ever to the meek

A heritage is given;

Nor lose they Earth who, single-hearted, seek

The righteousness of Heaven!"

John Greenleaf Whittier
