Early Birthday Blessings!!!

The house was chilled with the weather so cold.
My feet felt like ice and it was getting old.
So away to the rocker by the fire I went to sit
To warm my feet and sit and knit.

The dogs started barking as if someone was here.
Yet I heard no sound of anyone drawing near.
Then I heard a dog bark from outside the door.
I got up at once to cross that cold floor.

And what did I see when I peered out the door?
The Wonderful children, can you count them all four?
They were out in my yard doing something for me.
They built me some snowmen, can you see all three?

They know I love snowmen and so to be kind.
They came to build them in this yard of mine.
Now, when I look out the door of my house,
I see three snowmen a snow dog and a mouse.

Thank you Wonderful neighbor children for coming over and building me snowmen. They built one for me, Michael and Joshua. Then they did a snow dog and a mouse. I sent them home with some Hershey kisses!!! Things like this thrill my heart. My birthday is very soon. I will take this as an early birthday gift!!!






Here is the snow dog. They told me it was Dixie!!! =) See its ears?
