Christmas is a season for giving more than you would ever expect to get in return, receiving love from your friends and family and being surrounded by those you love.
Think about the lights...they are so pretty and when they twinkle at night for a month out of the year, it really does give the season a magical feel.
Think about the care you committed to watering your Christmas tree and the sentimental value of your Christmas ornaments.
Last year with my husband we cut up all of our old race medals and made them into tree ornaments, used the ribbons as garlands and used the extra garland to tie bows on the tree. We also hung candy canes as a sweet reminder of the season :-).
So enjoy this day if you are with your families and friends today. Be thankful for these times and don't blink as Kenny Chesney said. If you watch everyday with the same watchful eye that you would have as a child on Christmas morning, you would be amazed at what you will see.
Joy to the World.
Remember the Reason for the Season.
Be thankful for all of the people in your life and for those you will meet in 2012!
Merry Christmas!
