I Tried to Teach My Child with Books; He Gave Me Only Puzzled Looks. I Tried to Teach My Child with Words; They Passed Him by Often Unheard. Despairingly, I Turned Aside; “How Shall I Teach this Child,” I cried? Into My Hand He Put the Key, “Come,” He Said, “Play with Me.” ~ Author Unknown

“I don’t pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me.  Love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person.  Love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of.  Love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.”     ~Author Unknown

Christmas – that magic blanket that wraps itself about us, that something so intangible that it is like a fragrance.  It may weave a spell of nostalgia.  Christmas may be a day of feasting, or of prayer, but always it will be a day of remembrance – a day in which we think of everything we have ever loved.
