Annette, Jordan, and Cody, I know this first Christmas without Stacy is sad. I found this poem for my first Christmas without my mom. I pray it brings you the same sweet peace it gave me. Love you guys, Mary MY FIRST CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN I've had my first Christmas in Heaven, A glorious wonderful day, I stood with the saints of the ages Who found Christ, the Truth, and the Way. I sang with the Heavenly Choir, Just think, I joined in to sing And oh, what celestial music we brought To our Savior, our Lord and our King. We sang the glad songs of redemption, How Jesus to Bethlehem came, And how they called His name - Jesus, That all might be saved by His Name. We sang again once with the angels, The message they sang that blest morn, When Shepherds first heard the glad story, That Jesus, the Savior was born. O, dear ones, I wish you had been there, No Christmas on earth could compare, With all the rapture and glory, We witnessed in Heaven so fair. You know how I always loved Christmas, It seemed such a wonderful day, With all my loved ones around me, The children so happy and gay. Yes, now I can see why I loved it And oh what a joy it will be, When you and my loved ones are with me To share in the glories I see. So dear ones on earth, here's my greeting: Look up, till the day down appears, Oh what a Christmas awaits us! Beyond our parting tears. ~ Author Unknown ~
