It's starting to get really chilly outside...and I decided to try really hard to have Christmas spirit this year. Chris put our tree up at the beginning of November (I don't like it up till after Thanksgiving, but he won this year...) and I have to admit, I am feeling festive! Gonna try really hard to ignore the commercialism this year and not be annoyed by things like 'X mas' (Christ is the reason for the holiday after all) and the incessant repetition of the same Christmas songs on the radio for almost 2 months. I am going to try and ignore the retailers trying to cash in (Happy Holidays! half-off green beans! ), the impatience of shoppers waiting in line, driving too fast, and being downright rude.
Instead, I am going to follow Buddy the Elf's advice: The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is by singing LOUDLY for all to hear!
And revel in the wonderment that Drew feels this time of year. He loves Birthdays! Especially Jesus'. :)
Peace to you this Christmas and Holiday season...no matter what you celebrate, share the love!
