V is for Victory!

Ahhh, we have been Victorious in pulling of the Nativity and enjoying our family Christmas celebrations this year! We're finalizing the costume cleaning and bagging tonight. All is well in this little corner of my mountain. Daughter's have come to the "top" to seek advice on a variety of subjects, and generally I've been victorious in being able to help.

I disagree with Big Bird. There are lots of words that start with V. There's vegetables [yum--and they're healthy!] and victory [always good when its your side--right?] and vim and vigor [returning after the stresses of Pageant and holidays--trying to do everything just so] and vacant [the vacant historic house I pass regularly is looking very happy and no longer vacant--and no longer looks like a haunted house.]] and village [I love mine] and villains [not too many here in our small village!] and vices [thats what New Year's resolutions are for--to help us conquer our own vices, no matter the size.] Violins and Viola playing vivatiously. [All right, I admit to preferring band!]Viscious vixens are not in the area, and that's a good thing. So I'm Very very happy for the many blessing we do enjoy!

[And I could come up with lots more V words, too--just in family names! Valerie, Val, Vincent, Vince, Vin, Vincenzo, Vincente, Vic, Vittore, Victor, and Veronica; plus Vicky and Victoria; also Vinceanna, Velma, Vern, Verna, and many many more!]
