On one January first back in the seventies, it was still dark outside\u00a0<\/span><\/span>when I awoke.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

The den was toy- strewn; there were supper dishes in the sink .\u00a0 A pile of laundry waited to be washed, while the dryer was full of the last load.\u00a0 I didn’t have the traditional Southern New Year’s meal- black-eyed peas, cornbread\u00a0 \u00a0and hog jowl-planned; I didn’t even have milk for breakfast . Wearily I tossed scattered toys \u00a0into the yellow\u00a0 clothes basket with the broken handle.\u00a0 New Year’s Day.\u00a0 Bah humbug!\u00a0I felt someone watching me and turned.\u00a0 In the dark room stood Julie my oldest, in her pink nightgown \u00a0with the top button missing.\u00a0 Sleepy eyed she asked so softly, “Why are you up so early, Mama”<\/p>\n

I stood up straight and looked \u00a0at her— really looked at her.\u00a0 A smile found my face.\u00a0 “Yep, Julie Babe, your teacher’s a smart lady.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Father God, <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

You must have been excited on that very first day of creation.\u00a0 <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

I’m claiming a bit of that excitement\u00a0 myself, first day of 2016 <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n
