These are a few of my favorite things about Christmas...
Hot Cocoa
Cozy fireplace
Making a Gingerbread house (or train, this year) with the kids, eating candy drops as we go
Christmas Lights on houses
Christmas Trees, all lit up
Children giggling
Jingling Bells
Making candy
Dark Chocolate
Peppermint kisses by sticky little faces
Fancy ribbon and pretty paper
Watching Christmas Vacation (and The Polar Express , Elf, The Christmas Story, and laughing at how similar they seem to our own Holiday life!)
Reading the story of Jesus' birth, over and over again, hoping the kids will get it
Giving gifts to friends and family, being somebody's
Sub-for-Santa, and praying for my children to understand the true Spirit of Christmas
That irresistible smile on your child's face when she gets a new toy that is so completely her (Or him)
Relishing the joy of Christmas with my little family
