A quick note to share with you a photograph I received as a Christmas present from your cousins, Samantha and Melodi. It was taken when they were out celebrating Samantha's recent birthday. I also wanted to post a new section containing some of my Recent Artwork.
Wishing you a very Happy and Healthy New Year! Two thousand eight will be a memorable year for you as you graduate from college and head off to the next chapter of your life. I am so very proud of you! You are the greatest!

My presents are all wrapped in their usual festive attire, my Christmas cards are all sent to family and friends, and I sang "Silent Night" by candlelight last evening at the church where you once attended pre-school. Before I set off down the road to spend the day with my mother, brother, and his family, I wanted to post a message here for you, in hopes that you might decide to check this Web site. My wish for you this beautiful Christmas Day is this—
May the GOOD LORD's gift of the risen Christ be born again in your heart this Wondrous Christmas Day and every day! A Very Merry Christmas, dear daughter, to you and all of your family and friends! And may you have a Happy and Healthy New Year! Many Bright Blessings!

Your cousin Samantha turns seventeen today! Hard to believe she is now half-way through her junior year of high school! Your cousin Melodi is getting ready to embark on her Semester-At-Sea. She will spend the entire spring semester sailing eastward around the world, stopping at a dozen ports of call. Melodi has become quite the world traveler, visiting India for three weeks this past June! Anyway—Happy Birthday, Samantha!

It has been sixteen years since we last saw one another. I pray with all of my heart and soul that this next year will bring about some sort of reconciliation between us. Be not afraid. Place your faith in the GOOD LORD that all will be made right!
