Up on the rooftop reindeer pause Out jumps good old Santa Claus. Down through the chimney, with lots of toys, All for the little ones' Christmas joys. . . Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go. Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go, Up on the housetop, click, click, click; Down through the chimney with good ol’ Saint Nick. . . First comes the stocking of little Nell; Oh, dear Santa fill it well! Give her a dolly that laughs and cries; One that will open and shut her eyes. . . Next comes the stocking of little Bill; Oh just see what a glorious fill! Here is a hammer and lots of tacks; A whistle and a ball and a whip that cracks! . . Stockings. Wish lists. Presents. A Christmas party. This is the Shepherd Class. The lives within my home and family has been forever changed because of this class at this church, but this annual event brings so much into my life as a parent and caregiver that words haven’t been created to express my appreciation. My small group spends so much time preparing stockings filled with items that my son will use for months that he loved but then I don’t have to purchase for a few months. Then the teachers in his class give more than provided to each person in the class, essentials on their Christmas wish list. Christmas may not be seen by some of the families and slim in single parent homes, but in this class, hearts are open and with excitement they can’t wait till all the students arrive to share the gifts and pray over them. Love these small groups! #MerryChristmas #RitaHutchesonCobbs #dbclife #smallgroup #shepherdclass #stockings #Christmaslist https://www.instagram.com/p/B6G03SunAWx/?igshid=n3q0mq6n7weh
