Mom, what do you want for Christmas?

Many years ago, my young son asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I pondered that question. Really pondered that question...then came to a decision. I told him that I wanted peace on earth. (That is what I really wanted...I had two young sons...I was thinking of their future) My son then, rather dejectedly said, Oh...I was hoping you wanted something like lipstick.

Gone are those days of innocence. Oh how I miss them.

Oh-how I still wish for peace on earth.

Let it begin with me.
