my baby falling asleep on his daddy's shoulder.

the paper reindeer Sam brought home from school today.
watching them be brothers.

Christmas mail and finding a new place to display cards.
seeing the love in my home.

my baby's first piece of mail, a Christmas cards of his own from his Grandpa, that almost made me cry because it was sweet.
the delicious anticipation of his first real Christmas at home.

wrapping presents and shiny bows.
the smell, the glow, the sparkle.

an empty dirty laundry hamper, a swept floor, and no dishes in the sink.
old friends (but not saying goodbye).

hot apple cider.
red velvet cupcakes.

What do you love?
