I'm pretty sure December is my favorite month. Christmas is my favorite thing ever for basically three hundred reasons. There are so many things I want to do this month.
For example, I'd love to
- Listen to LOTS of Christmas music (already succeeding here!)
- Watch my favorite Christmas movies (It's a Wonderful Life, Elf, The Santa Clause, Rudolph, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, etc.)
- Give gifts to those I love
- Give gifts to people I don't even know
- Volunteer
- Get my room organized (not related to Christmas, but it's something I want to do)
- Go sledding (come on snow!)
- Help people know that they are loved
- See some lovely lights
- Do more decorating
- Enjoy the decorations
- Bake cookies and share them
- Spend time with people I love
- Sing Christmas songs
I fully intend to do as many of those things as possible. I think I'll do a lot of them, and they'll make this month even more wonderful!
However, the thing I love most about Christmas is thinking about Christ. I love Christ. I truly believe that his birth is something to be celebrated and to be happy about. Because he was born, I am who I am today. He is the gift. I hope this month to remember Christ better and be more like him. And really, not just this month but always.
Michelle, You are such an incredible person!
