Is it to early to be thinking about Christmas? Well, I have already started the thinking about and planning process of this never ending holiday. My list has been started and I'm looking for sales. I've started cutting and sewing and soon we will draw names so that the kids can work on gifts all fall for their siblings. Anyone who knows me, knows Christmas is my least favorite holiday. I love the spiritual side of Christmas and the hope and joy one can feel during this time of celebration. What I don't like is the santa, buying frenzy, it's never enough crazy part. I know that most people won't agree with my desire to tell my kids that late last night santa died in his sleep very peacefully and his funeral will be next week, but that is exactly how I feel. So instead of killing the old guy off we have decided to have him come on St. Nicholas day. This is the day that St. Nicholas visits good children in parts of Europe and now in parts of the United States as well. This year he will come on December 6th and I will be done with him for the rest of the month and we can get on with the study and celebration of Christ's birth. The real reason we celebrate CHRISTmas.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
