“Christmas is a coming and the bells begin to ring,
The holly’s in the window and the birds begin to sing.”

This past week I spent holed up inside, prepping for Christmas and listening to Christmas music from every speaker in the house. The past few months have been a flurry of schedules, meetings and to-do lists. It wasn’t until December 1st that I realized Thanksgiving had come and gone and pretty soon Christmas would be too, and I had yet to take in the joy of the season. So for one week, I cozied up inside my house watching Christmas movies, drinking cocoa, decorating for Christmas, and enjoying the most wonderful time of the year. Now, if only it would snow.
