[Alberta's Child]

Sort of alone. Wrapping gifts and sending Christmas greetings via e-mail to some old friends while I listen to 150 Christmas carols on iTunes in "shuffle" mode. Bing Crosby's "Do You Hear What I Hear?" was just up. Ed Sullivan's "O Bambino" is on now. These are two of the best versions of any Christmas song of all time, in my mind.

Getting ready for midnight Mass in a little while.

Merry Christmas and all the best to you and your daughter tomorrow. May 2016 and beyond bring nothing but great blessings for your family in times like this when we sometimes wish things could be better.

One cold and blessed winter,
In days beyond recall,
A Child was born to save us,
Born to save us all.
One cold and blessed winter,
Born to save us all.

O Bambino, mio Divino,
Io ti vedo qui tremar.

Terrific, hope you can find it.
