After a recent snow storm I captured this beautiful snow laden tree. This is my Christmas gift to all of you- the wonderful artists here I consider friends. I hope you enjoy the image and the story! Wishing ALL The Happiest of Holidays !!!

One ....Christmas Morning
On Christmas morning even the creatures of the forest knew something special had happened. A new Holy Spirit had blessed the earth with its presence. To let the Heavenly Father know they felt the Savior's presence, the creatures of the forest wanted to create something special
A lovely tree laden with exquisite crystals of snow caught the attention, of the cardinals and they started to decorate the tree with bright red berries.. The bright red berries and Cardinal feathers caught everyone's attention. Inquisitive chickadees, were so impressed by this they couldn't wait to help decorate. No creature in the forest could resist the beautiful sight. They all wanted to decorate the tree in their own special way. Squirrels, rabbits and chipmunks all took part. When God saw what they had done He blessed all of them and created a large glowing snowflake that floated above it ..It was His gift to them, to show his love and appreciation for their gift to his Son.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of you! :o)
