Every year I try talking myself into the crazy idea that Christmas is overated. That we commercialize it too much and it takes away from the true meaning. That Christmas is just another day. I also try not to get too crazy with overspending and preparation. BUT! every year the spirit carries me away and this was no different. The music, the looks on the girls faces when they saw Santa came. The joy of being with family and having a full house of love. That is what this Christmas was all about! Without Christmas would we ever slow down and focus on what is important to us?

I am blessed becasue I do focus on that through my scrapbooking throughout the year. With paying attention to the details I get to enjoy my life more. The hugs are warmer, the laughter transcends me and I am blessed. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that in the New Year you will take time to remember what is important in this life. And yes, maybe even scrapbook it!

Love,

Sarita
