Christmas to me is.... A family tree all decked with lights that glow and twinkle in the night. Stockings hung neatly for each one of us because Santa has promised to fill them up. Cookies of every kind have been freshly baked to save for Christmas Day and also give away. Holiday music playing softly in the room reminding us that it will come upon the world real soon. Presents galore stacked under the tree waiting to be opened by the ones we love, our family. Infants and toddlers filled with wonder and joy, It's amazing how their eyes light up just to get a toy! Christmas to me is.... Remembering those who need you most of all, by showing you care even in ways that are small. A time for giving to others as much as you can and trying to follow through with Jesus' plan. Spending time with family and friends, especially ones who will be there for you in the end. Making the best of your life as it is, there's no time to waste all that you could miss. Being thankful for everything you've got, not taking it for granted before it's too late and gone. Most of all, just expecting that others realize how much they mean to me without asking why! Copyright December 4, 1998 by Bobbie J. BrownBirth sign: Scorpio
