Merry Christmas!

9:18 PM

To all of my wonderful readers and blogging friends, may you have a very Merry Christmas! Even though your holidays might look a little different this year, I hope you make time to relax, make merry, spend time with loved ones and, of course, read a good book (or two or three ...). Stay healthy and safe.

I love this video about the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Enjoy!

Comments make me feel special, so go crazy! Just keep it clean and civil. Feel free to speak your mind (I always do), but be aware that I will delete any offensive comments.

P.S.: Don't panic if your comment doesn't show up right away. I have to approve each one before it posts to prevent spam. It's annoying, but it works!
