You make me happy.
the glowing and glittery lights
the music
the feelings of goodwill and charity
the traditions
the excitement
the secrets
the kid-made ornaments
the pretty paper
the smiling people
the flavors
the smells
the hot cocoa
the nativities
the nativities
the true meaning
the extra happiness floating around
the hoodlums who make it even more fun
the surprises
the new ornaments (my hubby surprised me with a sock monkey ornament for my birthday)

Granted I do get a little overwhelmed with the activities and hustle and bustle, and it's not quite as magical as when I was a youngster (because I'm the mom now and really... when is anything magical when you're the mom), but I do love it...and I will miss it when it's over.
Oh, Merry Christmas, Lou! I just got your Christmas card in the mail and it is LOVELY! What fun. :)
ReplyDeleteYour fireplace is positively enchanting. I just want to snuggle up next to it with a puffy blanket and pillow and a good book...
I love your sock monkey ornament. Did L crochet it for you? He seems the domestic type. ;)
Your house looks wonderful. Merry Christmas!
