IT'S PURIM!
Happy Purim!
Do you all remember the Purim play you put on in Aunt Sally's house and also here in my Clubhouse?
Wow, the script written by Sari, from The Megillah,( true story) was so good, the costumes were fabulous (Aunt Sally did them,) and the acting was great.
Lauren, Elizabeth and Nicole,took turns as Queen Vashti and Queen Esther, the Queen who saved her people Evan, sat on his throne as the Persian King Ahasuerus. ( He did it barefooted.) Daniel, Justin and Benjamin took turns as Mordecai and the evil Haman. Michael was the Official Photographer. Good job all of you!
Well, Purim is traditonally a celebration and a time to give gifts, MONEY to the children. So, Grandma Rae has a generous gift to each of you. I have one too but not nearly as generous.
Hopefully, we can get together. Love,
Grandma

SNOW
With the exception of the last two lines..."God's in his Heaven...." the words are mine.
The world is white today and clean
Silence covers everything
Thick flakes that drift as in a dream
Slow motion, they floated free
In hushed abandon..tumbled, swirled
Then I say aloud in my empty room
The words that keep us safe and warm
"God's in His heaven
All's right with the world."
