I want Christmas.
Like, right now.
This very minute.
I love the lights that make the night cheery when you're on your way home from somewhere. The world somehow seems so much safer when there is the absence of darkness. I love how everyone is happy to see one another, and how we are reminded of the beauty and grace that is ours by God's mercy. I love seeing my family, and talking to my friends. I love to sing the old, familiar carols, and I love cuddling up before a fire with a book and hot chocolate. I love making Christmas cookies, and not having to go to school, and hoping for snow. I love snuggling up in bed on a cold morning under about three thick blankets, and making up a story without anything to rush me. I love being able to clean things to within an inch of their lives, and making things comfortable for my family. I love hearing the Christmas story, and thinking about Mary. It seems like I can never understand Mary enough--new aspects to her story are always popping up in front of me. I love just about everything about Christmas. It's such a beautiful time of year.
Presents aren't so bad, either....
KIDDING!
