How lovely! Not only because she is yours, but her face signifies the face of smiling children around the world. You have a gift for capturing the heart of all mother's and grandmother's whose prayers and lives live for a beautiful world. Christmas Blessings, dear Marmee. (Had trouble getting through on Blotanical so came through the back door :) ... my site. Hugs!
Hey, Marmee, instead of copying and pasting the "URL" on youtube, you copy and paste the "embed" portion (the code is located on the right of the youtube video, right below the url portion). Sometimes, on my blogger it doesn't work when I try to paste so I paste into a "new" email first, then keep copying and pasting from the email, until it works. Funky I know. That way, the actual video will show up on your blog instead of just the link. If you're wanting it that way...
thanks joey, i didn't think of that but i love that you said
"her face signifies the face of smiling children around the world."
it's true. thank you for your words of kindness, i am a mother and i am a grandmother and thus i share from the heart, i am glad you can sense the passion. hope you have the most merry christmas ever!
rissa, if you only knew how much time i had tried to post this the traditional way, you might laugh. i tried the embedded code. i tried going thru other video places other than youtube. i think i need someone to watch what i am doing to see where i go wrong. i am not sure if i have ever emailed it but will try. completely different subject. do you ever find when you go to leave a comment the comment section is up where you can't read what you are writing because it is on top of other comments already left. this happens to me especially on certain blogs. i go ahead and leave a comment not really being able to see what i have written but then preview it and fix it if needed. has this ever happened to you? and what can you do about it>?
Thanks Marmee. "O Holy Night" is one of my favorites. I love to go to midnight services on Christmas Eve--and listen to someone sing that gorgeous song. Talk about goose bumps!!! Hugs, Betsy
Hi Marmee, I just adore Celine, the voice of an angel. Your baby mouse is just lovely! You can tell by her posture that she must be a fabulous tiny dancer. I wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year! xoxo~ Abbie
thank you abbie, she is a great little dancer and loves to perform. i thought celine did a wonderful version of this great christmas song. hope you have a great and happy christmas.
Good morning...Thank you for thinking of us all when you chose such a beautiful song to celebrate. and Happiest of Christmas wishes for you and your family. Gail
Marmee, This has always been my favorite Christmas song of all; Celine has the perfect voice for it. Your little "Nutcracker mouse" is the perfect image of the season--to me, seeing Christmas through a child's eyes makes it so special. Christmas greetings and blessings to you, Marmee!
gail, i do appreciate your sweet words. we do so love our mouse in our house. we all have thoroughly enjoyed the christmas season so far. just 2 days, i'm cooking so in between thought i would pop by and glad to be able to wish you a most happy christmas and blessings on all of your family.
rose, i do believe thru a child eyes is the best way to experience the true beauty of christmas too. they are all so wided-eyed and excited to see all that comes with this holiday. hope you have the merriest of christmases too.

It is what Christmas is all about... our dear Savior's birth. I LOVE this song and Celine does a marvelous job with her crystal clear version.

do you ever find when you go to leave a comment the comment section is up where you can't read what you are writing because it is on top of other comments already left. this happens to me especially on certain blogs. i go ahead and leave a comment not really being able to see what i have written but then preview it and fix it if needed. has this ever happened to you? and what can you do about it>?
