The Christmas Letter (that didn't get sent )

Today I decided to go through my nightstand and get rid of some things to make room for some other things that had no place to go. In doing so I came across the rought draft of a "Christmas" letter that my Sarah wrote a couple of years ago. We never sent it out but thought I'd share it here because it is rather funny after all. At least, we think so.




The Best of wishes are being sent
To friends and family dear
And tho all good years come to an end,
There's blessing in the New Year!

We wish to every one of you,
A Christmas of joy and love
Blessing each other, God Blesses you,
Think of Jesus above!

ATTENTION ONE AND ALL:

Well, here is some news about the Greenwood family!

Dad has become the biggest Grump of all ages and is working to achieve more!

Mom is becoming stricter every day...we never have a day off of school!

Hannah went to Haiti, but it did not improve her! She is a snipe and gets angry with you if you ask her a question.

James is just as annoying as ever, doing irritating things like pushing you back down an icy hill when you finally get to the top!

Since Grace and James went to Bible school, Grace has spent alot of time on the phone..even more than Mom (and that's hard to beat!).

Sarah, I don't know. I guess I'd say I'm just trying to cope with everything and everyone else, and they are trying to cope with me! I know they do have to...sometimes.

Seth still thinks he's older than me and is a pro at everything. He is also quite a know-it-all!

Mary is having a hard time getting over her irritating giggling over every thing that isn't funny!

Ruth is a tattletale and sometimes if she gets mad, she can hurt you! She likes to scratch! We have given her several nick-names such as "Bingo", "Dobba", "Ru-head", and boy does she LOVE them!

Joe is getting attached to Grace which could turn out badly!

Pete is - - I don't know - - you might say he's a brat - -sometimes!

But sometimes, as a family, we do have fun and loving moments! And we hope you have a wonderful Holiday Season!

We always said Sarah was born with a bit of a mean streak so now you know it's true. But I do like the way she writes!
