Merry Christmas to YOU!

I've been talking quite a bit lately about giving back. To your friends, family, community, church. All this talk of giving back, mixed with this wonderful season made me want to give something to each of you. Unfortunately, I can't give something to all of you. But I can give something to one of you.
So, this is my Christmas gift to you.

  3. my favorite thing about the Christmas season is usually seeing family but since we're not seeingt either of our parents/grandparents this year- i'll say it's going to be starting our own traditions! and listening to John Denver and the Muppets (I have the tape as a kid and now the cd)!

  12. I've always loved Christmas...but this is the first year my daughter really has gotten into it, she's 3. Though it's hard to find little words, I have loved telling her about Baby Jesus and listening to her questions. She has brought so much joy into this Christmas season for us...

  29. favorite thing about the Christmas season... is probably the ding aling bell you hear as you walk around, from the salvation army! I know Im strange...but it's something that's WORLDWIDE! So, it makes living here in Korea feel a little more like the US when I hear it :)
