Ida 5 Notebook
Somehow the Christmas season catches
up most of us in its hectic pace. We dash
to the store, dash to meetings and parties
and huiry thiough oui housework.
It is difficult to find a few minutes of
quiet and to contemplate the real reason for
Chustmas.
Sometimes it is necessaiy to use early
or even to stay up late in order to have a
few peaceful moments away fiom a busy
family.

into the fiesh an and heaid the chuich bells
chiming over three miles away

but I could see two wild ducks I h fP e the y Wlll always be aware
