The Dream of Christmas

The Dream of Christmas

Christmas is a dream woven between the layers of sleep and wakefulness where everything is warm, soft, and a bit blurred around the edges as an old-fashioned photograph. Outside snow falls in gentle sways of white, each unique, glistening snowflake landing in the soft silence and joining harmoniously creating a pristine blanket of white. The drab of winter is wearing a fluffy covering, a pure benediction from heaven.

Wasn’t it just Christmas?

Holiday Season 2014

Here we are; it is the holiday season again. Didn’t we just celebrate Christmas the other day?

Didn’t we just set goals for 2014?

Wasn’t it just summer?

But the reality is: I am shopping for gifts for my dear ones, packing and shipping boxes, and planning menus for gatherings. And loving every minute of it.

We welcomed a new grandbaby this year and are expecting a new one in March of 2015, which will bring us to a lovely number of 5 grandchildren. After a long pause, we are back in the toy department for gift buying. It looks like we will be there for many years to come. And we are loving every minute of it.
