Today’s gift count (220): you currently have 10 Leaping Lords, (the ten lords represent the Ten Commandments,)
18 Rockettes, 24 young milkmaid, 28 Swans making a racket, 30 geese a’ laying, 30 golden rings, 28 calling birds, 24 French hens, 18 turtledoves and 10 partridges in their respective pear trees.
The ten lords represent the Ten Commandments.)
Today is also the feast day of St. Genevieve. St. Genevieve is a French saint who lived from circa 419 to 512. At the young age of seven a prophecy was made by St. Germaine that through the example of her life many would be brought to faith. She is credited with saving the city of Paris from being attacked by Atilla the Hun when she implored the inhabitants of France to remain rather than flee and devote themselves to prayer and penance. The approaching army turned towards another city and left Paris untouched.
Do not take the example of St. Genevieve, seriously contemplate fleeing the country (with the gold rings) and living in Canada under an assumed name.
