Everyone seems to want a little extra Christmas cheer this year, well, at least that's what it seems like this year. Several neighbors already have their Christmas decorations and lights displayed. We already have our tree up! It's tradition to wait the day after Christmas to put up and decorate the tree. But not this year. Today I'm going to help decorate the tree the day before Thanksgiving, and when our family comes to visit tomorrow we can all bask in the tree's glow.
Isn't that the nicest thing about Christmas Trees? The lights at night. All the lights in the house are dimmed or turned off, while the Christmas Tree shines bright. It's magic. Enchanting really. I love it.
It's Exactly one month before Christmas. November 25th. Crazy isn't it!!?? Oh my goodness. Where did this year go??!! Heh, it's probably a good thing this year has flown by so fast. But, oh, I don't know. Do I really want 2021 to be here so soon? No, not yet. I'm going to enjoy this time. Enjoy the Christmas cheer. Have a hot chocolate or two. Fill out cards to send in the mail. Spend time with family. Read next to the Christmas tree. Celebrate the birth of Christ. Watch Christmas movies and listen to Christmas songs. Just get lost in the feeling. The peace.
Yup, that's what I'm going to do!
After a year of crazy I'm going to focus on the things that really matter.
Much love,
Sarah
