Even Brighter
I have always loved the holiday
season. From October 1st until January 2nd is my jam. I'm one of those "to
every season there is a purpose" people. I don't start thinking about
Thanksgiving until Halloween is over. And I don't put up any Christmas
decorations until after the Thanksgiving leftovers are almost gone. I like to
celebrate each holiday, milk every occasion for all it's worth.
But now, it’s officially time for
Christmas. I'm doing a little happy dance in my chair as I type this. I've
always loved everything about Christmas. I love the glitter and the food and
the good will and cheer. I love the twinkle lights and the magical feel in the
air. I love that people strive toward kindness and compassion. December gives
me all the feels.
Obviously, I love holiday
traditions. I live for them and I am constantly trying to rope my family into
new ones. Not all of them stick...my family doesn't blindly follow my lead.
My absolute favorite tradition?
Christmas books. We started it when my daughter was a baby, and we do it every
year. We buy my daughter a new Christmas book and then read it during bedtime
all of December. Every night in December we crawl in bed and read through all
her Christmas books. It's so cozy and fun. And I can now recite “How the Grinch
Stole Christmas,” which is a great life skill.
I know that my daughter won't
always let me read to her. I know that before long, she'll be reading to me.
But just as I refuse to celebrate holidays early, I refuse to rush my kiddo out
of her childhood. I'll help her believe in the magic of Christmas (and
Halloween and Thanksgiving) for as long as I possibly can.
Happy Holidays everyone. Joy and
Good Cheer you and your loved ones.
Happy
Place
