Bits of Christmas

I can't believe Sunday is Christmas.  I don't want it to be here!  I love the holidays and they go by too fast.  I wish it could be here all year long because this is what I will miss....

I'll miss threatening my children with Santa.  Just mention the words Santa Claus and they turn into sweet angels.






I'll miss my house being decorated.  It always looks so bare afterwards.




I'll miss little reminders in the mailbox of how loved and blessed with are with our family and friends.




I'll miss the sweet smells of fresh baked cookies in the home.  It's the only time I don't feel guilty stuffing my face, and my kids', with sugary goodness.


As a kid, of course, Christmas was all about what presents I'd get.  But as I've gotten older, the season is about togetherness with those who matter most.  The holidays are an excuse to take the time to get together.  I love sharing memories and laughs with my family and friends.  They are what makes the holidays so magical and special.
