8th Day of Christmas!!

On the 8th day of Christmas, my true love sent to me,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying.
Five Golden Rings.
Four calling birds,
Three french hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!

Where are you going to put all these things that you have been given? You can wear those 5 golden rings. Will the lords be a leaping all the time or do they get a break? Those poor swans a swimming. Just kidding, I think this is nice!!

Good evening, Dearest Linnea! Oh, whatever you will be in your pageant, you'll be the most wonderful one, I'm sure of it! Thank you so much for all of your prayers and suggestions for my Mother. I called her doctor and they sent out a nurse today to evaluate her and will be sending others starting next week to help with her for 60 days and more if she needs it! God is so good and I thank Him for friends like you, Linnea!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia;)
