Before everyone’s day gets started with revelry, gluttony, and football, I just wanted to pause and wish you a wonderful new year. Last year I used the Irish Marriage Blessing, and it’s so lovely I think I’ll use it again—maybe make it my yearly tradition.
May God be with you and bless you.
May you see your children’s children.
May you be poor in misfortunes
and rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness
from this day forward.
See you in 2007!
