Hey Everyone!!
Merry Merry Christmas!!! I woke up early.. this is the first year that I did not wake up with my parents and brother on Christmas morning. But, this year I woke up with my husband and cute kitty (Bear). I guess I’m growing up. But, it’s all good… last night the whole fam came over to our new apartment and spent a few hours eating, laughing and exchanging gifts.
Christmas has always been a magical time of year for me and my family and I think people across the world everywhere. It is the most celebrated holiday, the most commercialized holiday, and the one that has the most traditions and gifts. It’s honestly fabulous… and many of us wish that it could be Christmas every day of the year. For me, I’d wish that mostly so that I never had things I was obligated to do. Christmas is a day where you can really do whatever you want to do.
Anyway, I just wanted to with you all 
a very Happy Christmas Day and to be very blessed in all that you do, with family, friends and in the days activities. I appreciate all of you who pay attention to my blog. Writing is my passion, and I am so very blessed to have some of the supportive people in my life that I do.
With that I’d like to share a poem I found that truely expresses what I want to say to you all today:
Don’t Forget Jesus
To reflect on Jesus Christ
The wonder of His lowly birth
Brings meaning to our lives
There really is no other reason
We celebrate this day
The birth of God’s precious son
And the life He willingly gave
But so much seems to distract us
In the busy-ness of our lives
We lose our focus in all the happenings
Not knowing, we leave out Christ
We lose sight of the true meaning
As we endlessly rush about
Trying to find that perfect gift
Seems to cloud our Saviour out
We need to stop and reflect awhile
Remembering our precious Lord
His birth, His life and sacrifice
And all that He stands for
For though the world may celebrate
It seems though for other reasons
Let’s keep in mind that Jesus Christ
Is the true meaning of the season
