      Aww, Beth. Now I’m all lit like a Christmas tree. No, more like a Rudolph with my red nose (I have a cold 🤧)

    Selma, your poem is a beautiful journey into the nostalgia of childhood memories during December. The vivid imagery of your family’s efforts to create a white Christmas, the charming decorations, and the festive atmosphere is heartwarming. The attention to detail and the love-filled moments you describe evoke a sense of joy and appreciation for the simple pleasures of the season. It’s delightful!

            Hey Selma, thinking about you all since I saw where you experienced an earthquake that could have caused a tsunami. Are you and your family okay? I pray that you are. 🤗🙏🏽😊

            1. Selma Martin

              Yes my sweet. We are safe. The Pacific Ocean side is safe for now. I cannot imagine THAT happening to us on New Year’s Day. I’m saddened by this.
              Thanks for reaching out. Bless you.
