MERRY CHRISTMAS!
"How could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags!" He puzzled three hours, till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. "Maybe Christmas," he thought, "Doesn't come from a store." "Maybe Christmas… perhaps… means a little bit more!"
–Dr. Seuss, The Grinch Stole Christmas
"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." — Isaiah 9:6
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests." Luke 2:14
"I'll be home for Christmas if only in my dreams"
I am sitting here in Costa Rica thinking of my friends and family this morning hoping that you all have a blessed and safe Christmas! I love you all! I'll be home next year and it will make Christmas that much more special to me. Let's not forget the real reason of Christmas though as we open up presents and sit down to big family dinners.
