Only 2 more days till Christmas. I love the holidays. I love looking at my tree and enjoying the warm glow it casts over the room. I could sit for hours and just watch the lights twinkle. I think this intense joy of the holidays comes from the fact that I never had Christmas till I was 19 years old. I grew up in a house where Christmas was not celebrated and the holidays were just another day.
I love sharing the joy of the holidays with my kids, but I don't like the commercialism of it all. I am not a shopper so I don't enjoy that part. I love the meaning and the feeling in the air of the holidays. I love the reflection time it brings about. I scrapped a page last night about my first Christmas in 1987. It was alot of firsts, because not only was it my first xmas, but also Amanda's first Christmas and the first Christmas we spent with my husband Sam. What a great holiday. It is a time to be with family and friends. Merry Christmas all.
