Peace on Earth


Eli's latest picture got me thinking about Peace on Earth. When my children were small they would get so excited around the time of our anniversary and ask me what I wanted for a gift. I would always say, "Peace on Earth", to which they would cry, "For real, Mom, what do you want?" I would then sigh heavily and say that I wanted my own apartment, which went over just as well. Finally I said, "For really and truly, I want something I don't have to dust!" So if they listened and I was lucky, I got my favorite perfume or a gift certificate for a manicure, if not, I was luckier still and got little ceramic kitties. Which I had to dust, but not very often. When I saw this pic of Eli, it got me thinking of the peace on earth days and I thought, what if:

What if for just one minute the whole entire world held it's breath?

Peace on Earth for one minute; no

dying or

crying or

sying.

Peace on Earth and this is what it would look like...
