36. Fantastic thread. Both the mother & child theme and the carols

I love traditional carols and most especially the medieval-sounding - Good King Wenceslas and God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman" among my favorites...

And I may have written this last year at this time - the "true meanings of Christmas" for me is that every child born - no matter where or to whom - is precious and entitled to our love and true care ...born in a stable? to refugees? to parents fleeing the "lawful" authority of the King? poor? - no matter. In every child lies the hope of the world.

Happy Solstice to all. May we see a new and glorious morn in 2012 ...
