Taking Joy


"The gloom of the world is but a shadow; behind it, yet, within our reach, is joy. Take Joy.

And so, at this Christmas time, I greet you, with the prayer that for you, for now and forever, the day breaks and the shadows flee away."

Fra Giovanni
A.D. 1513



In expectation, three stockings have been hung at the Chaney house. Wow. Three kids. What joy indeed!
