This is Caleb Elroy: REJOICING!
Life does not always come the way we Dreamed and Planned....
But for me & the " Wonderful San Diego Family "IT WAS PERFECT IN EVERY WAY"
Susan’s choir and full Styn pew in their church. A wonderful full hour 9-10PM in their Jacuzzi singing carols, Under a brilliant full moon! Visualize it! (It's been part of the San Diego tradition for many years.)

Then the Lox and Bagel / Fruit Breakfast Christmas morning… Susan & Jen helping..
Ron had a real wood fire in the fireplace…Music…Opening of wonderful packaged gifts (My I was surprised! Family gifts and a 'WEB CAM.- & ULTRA-SONIC tm2.1...(“sound beyond comprehension”) To challenge and make the "Beast" touch the whole world.
I've already seen on my computer screen..
"Tasha,” a beautiful pink-haired friend of John's…as we talked and listened to her in Oakland…visiting her family..We did "HUG-NATION" (www.hugnation.com) ...A development of grandson John.

I EVEN WALKED WITH
RON& SUSAN'S.JOHN,JIM & JEN (The newest member in their family) Along the La Jolla Ocean Beach.

(A tradition of scores of years studying the ocean, looking for a green flash at sundown.)
With the Family gift of a Cellphone (Imagine this!) Several of us talked with Son Jim Shikles in Colorado Springs, Heather and Addy from San Jose & Rob,Tracy and Harper Lee from Fort Collins, joining Scott& Brooke's Cullen & Adden!
My 4 great grandchildren sang "Jingle
Bells” over the phone with lots of nice,
screaming and greeting...!!!!
What a World...May we all have good health, joy satisfaction,fun & growing LOVE in 2005...
The world needs our kind of people.
I visualized the outreach of caring in motion...we help in: Thailand, Peru, Ecuador, Africa & China.
All my love and Thanksgiving for each of you...
