I have been singing and humming Christmas tunes since I got up this morning. I am not sure my coworkers appreciate it but I have been hit with the Christmas spirit. Oh how I love this time of year.
When my parents were living I spent every Christmas with them and when Dad passed I would spend them with mom and then when Mom passed away I remember thinking that I would never enjoy another Christmas. Yes Christmases have changed since then and I do miss those times but I have started new traditions and spend my time with my children and grandchildren.
I love all the Hustle and Bustle of the holiday season. I love how excited all the little ones are and how families are planning their get togethers. I love the music,the decorations, the concerts, the church services, the parades and the list goes on. I love buying extra presents and donating to causes that help those who need it. I love to see the smiles and the joy and I love to bring happiness to whoever I can.
I know not everybody enjoys it and it can be a tough and sad time of year for many and I can understand that.
I feel blessed for every year that I am given and every holiday season that I get to celebrate.
For me it truly is the most wonderful time of the year!!

@Happy2BeMe Yes, I'm sure she is. Just like your parents are always there with you. And I do have my hubby, kids, and my mom and her side of the family during Christmas. Plus my husband''s side.

That is great..I am not really crazy about Christmas these days, but I did get in the mood to listen to some carols this past weekend. I have always loved Christmas carols.

I was tickled pink when I turned on my car radio this morning to find that it has switched to Christmas music!! It plays non-stop thru Christmas. So happy. Cranked it up and sang along.

What great Christmas spirit! Love the fact that you are so enthused. I, myself, don't have the Christmas spirit. Basically, I am just detached and the weather is still warm at nights. So, no Christmassy feelings yet.

It's sad for others because pain is felt most when lots of people are joyously celebrating.
