Christmas
In this season of Christmas, I would like to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas.
I love Christmas, it is my favorite holiday not because of all the gifts but of what this season means, means to me. The trees go up with all the whistles and bows and the lights, they are beautiful to watch. The smell of holiday cooking is the best, it makes eating much more enjoyable. The music at this time of year puts a twinkle in your eye and a jolliness in your soul.
What other time of year can you start out with Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and Jingle Bells and end with Silent Night and O'Little Town of Bethlehem? What other time of year do you sit around the tree and tell the story of Baby Jesus' birth and Twas the Night Before Christmas.
I remember as a small child when we were glued to the tv, the announcer would say, Santa has been spotted over such and such and he's on his way. So all you little girls and boys need to be sleeping so that he can come to your house. We would hear the jingle of his sleigh as the announcer would say. All of the children would get up and peer out the window to see if we could get a glimpse of that jolly ole fella... to our dismay.. not a single reindeer in sight.
Christmas is a time for us to remember the birth of our Lord. The story of his birth, always brings me to tears.. It is also found in the song The Little Drummer Boy.. To follow that shining star and to come to a child born in a manger. And who can say it better than the song Noel..... Born is the King of Israel.
Christmas is family and friends, eating till you pop, singing till you drop. Having the best time of the year.. and we can never forget that dreaded fruit cake that comes back every year and that great ole ale we call egg nog(spiked if you please)...
So I shall close with another great song... Have yourself a Merry little Christmas..
Thanks-----
