The Long Wait
It's finally Christmas Eve. Sometimes it seems like it takes forever for Christmas to come and when it arrives, we complain that it crept up on us. This is the day for the last-minute shopping, late gift wrapping, distributing goodies to friends and neighbors. The rhubarb pie is in the oven, the ham is ready to go in. Guests will arrive at 6 sharp. By 10 o'clock, gifts will all be opened, the house will be filled with torn wrapping paper and empty boxes. Everybody will be exhausted, but go to bed happy. Tomorrow will be a day for family, church and relaxation. Merry Christmas to all.
