What I Love About Christmas . . .

Christmas is a special time of year and should be celebrated and not dreaded. We need to remember that Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Christ and we should be joyus during this time (and all year) and not let the world get us caught up in how we should celebrate this special time.  This is one of the times during the year we take time time to really remember and lift up all the important people and things in our life.

Today your goal is to take a few minutes and write out on a piece of paper all the things you love about Christmas.  Think about things you do, things you see, how you celebrate, activities you attend, people you spend time with, traditions in your family, songs you love to listen to, family you celebrate with, giving gifts, sending cards, foods you enjoy, and anything else you think make the holiday season special for you.  Now that I have you thinking, write down in no particular order, these things on a blank page in your Christmas Organizing Notebook.

We will refer back to this list as we work on planning out our holiday season – we want to make sure we enJOY the season by filling it with the things we love doing and mean the most to us.
