The big day is finally here, and it's the time that we shift our emotions from anxious anticipation to the realization that “ready or not, here we are!”
Christmas Day always feels a little anticlimactic. The frenzy of preparation that crescendos through Christmas Eve is suddenly squelched as we finally get to enjoy the fruits of our pre-holiday labors!
And somewhere in the midst of the gift-opening, the family visits, and the holiday feasts comes the realization that all the time and effort leading up to the celebration was well-spent.
After the wrapping papers are discarded and the dishes are washed, it’s time to settle back and reflect on the day, the season, and the year.
I wish all of my family, friends, and anyone reading this the merriest of Christmases!
I hope that it is your best one ever!
