The heater is humming. The clock is ticking. Christmas lights are bouncing off the windows. The ice maker is dropping its ice. Grandpa Russ and Grandma Joan are flying home as I am writing and the rest of the family are sleeping. This is a perfect time to steal away to the living room and sit quietly by the lovely lit tree as another sweet Christmas slips into the past. Christmas really is the most favorite time of the year when family is together and memories are made. Anticipating and preparing for Christmas; enjoying and savoring its arrival; and revisiting the precious moments that happened only days and hours before make up this beautiful joyous season. I am always a bit sad to see the season go, but am oh so grateful for it as I look forward to many more.
