Christmas is Packed Up {but it’s not over}
Last night I packed up the Christmas tree.
I thought about leaving the mantel decorated, but I packed that up too.
I thought I’d regret it, but I didn’t.
Last night I packed up Christmas; I put everything neatly away in bins and boxes.
I thought it would look empty in here, but it doesn’t.
I thought I’d feel sad about it, but I wasn’t.
Because Christmas isn’t in the decorations, or the lights, or the gifts–
If Christmas is in your heart, you will have it any time you wish.
May the spirit of the season shine within you always, equally in June as in December.
Deck the Halls
If there is one thing I love, it is to decorate for various holidays. Christmas is the best, by far. Every year I add something new to our big bin of decorations. This year it is the golden bells hanging on the kitchen window. Simple. Classic. Lovely.
Welcome to our home;
Our halls our decked,
Full of merry and bright.
Our tree is trimmed
Full of reminders and light.
