A few days before Christmas, I heard a song that made me pause and think. The singer said something about wanting Christmas to last all year. This sentiment isn't anything new. Several songs carry that theme. And most people would admit to wanting Christmas to last longer. But why? What is it, exactly, that we… Continue reading Celebrating Christmas All Year Long

To fully appreciate the following letter, you'd want to go back and read last month's post where I shared a very special letter from Agnes Lee.
