We Coughlins did not get around to getting our annual Christmas letter done this year (remember my post, Too Much Tradition?). So we’re sending all of our family and friends a special greeting from our home to yours!
And with this greeting, this beautiful gift of inspiration:
I came searching for you by lead of an extraordinary light,
Thinking, “Surely my eyes will behold a royal in splendor.”
There you were – small, unassuming, vulnerable.
You embarrassed me with your astonishing humility,
Knowing, “Were I such a king, I would expect honor and adoration.”
I gave it to you freely – not because you demanded it…You deserved it.

Merry Christmas from the Coughlin Family!

Waitin' around for Dad to get his camera ready!
