I love this time of year. Everything is a little bit more lively, a little more festive. The lights on the house are up including a 9 foot Santa! And all the decorations inside are done! I even have all my Christmas shopping complete except for one gift. I still have all the wrapping to do though but that will come later. For now, I just sit here surrounded by cheerful lights feeling joyous. I have so much to be thankful for that I’m using this season to savor it all. I hope your December is just as lovely!
