CHRISTMAS IS COMING …AND SO IS THE WONDER

Christmas is coming, and with all the gifts to wrap and blinking lights twinkling across the house, we find ourselves drifting off into that familiar holiday daze.

You know the one—where your mind wanders from Will Santa get stuck in the chimney? to Where on earth did I put that ornament from 1972?

Or my personal favorite: Did I forget to order the pumpkin pies… again?

But even in the chaos—between the tape that disappears every five minutes and the never-ending to-do list—there’s a little magic that sneaks in.

Because when we finally nestle by the fire each night, counting down the days until Christmas arrives, something settles deep in our hearts.

A warmth.

A reminder.

A truth we often overlook until this time of year:

What matters most isn’t the presents, the perfect decorations, or even the pie.

It’s family. It’s friends. It’s the people who make our days feel a little brighter and our nights a little cozier.

So here’s to the wonder, the wobbling stacks of gifts, the missing ornaments, and the memories still waiting to be made.

Most of all—here’s to the people we love.
