Red Letter Day

Happy to know that soon I will hold in my arms my three fair faraway daughters, who are heading home this Xmas season. My house so quiet without them, the floorboards creek night tears. It too will be happy. 04/12/2019 For William Kekaula's contest A Red-Letter Day Rictameter.

Thank you Line. Two are in Vancouver and one in England. I feel especially blessed when they join me at these special times, as the eldest is now 29 and recently engaged to be married.
