Feels like Christmas

I was thinking the other day about what things in the house make me feel like Christmas is here. Here are just a few. Watching the kids excitedly pulling out their favorite ornaments to place on the tree. Picking up the handmade ones from the past and reminiscing about when they were made. After decorating the tree reading the Spider story and putting the spider on the tree. Blankets, sweaters, slippers and socks laying around everywhere for snuggling up. A pile of Christmas books ready to read throughout the month. Hot chocolate with breakfast or right before bed. A fridge filled with projects from preschool and first graders. Helping the kids wrap presents for teachers or grandma's or each other. Babies in fleece feety jammies all ready for snuggling. Small Christmas trees lighting up the faces of my sleeping children. So many warm wonderful things to go with this holiday.
