"The cow woke the baby Jesus up. It's hungry so it
moo'd. Jesus didn't cry though. His mommy held him
and rocked him. It's okay Jesus. It's okay. You can
go back to sleep."

My hand on her chest while she talks sleepily, the
covers warm on us, her feet against my leg, her
hands holding my arm.

Then she's asleep, breathing gently. She blew out
the hope candle in the advent log after dinner. I
made it out back from a little pine log with drill,
evergreen branches, red winter berries, twine,
candles. Tevis blew out the peace candle.

Now she's beside me, soft, simple, quiet, trusting,
yielding. She's peace. I love her.
