This morning as I was busy in my garage I watched passersby look into my pretty window when a bunch of small kids stopped by. They're looking at the tree and other things and I waved and they waved back and then they moved on to go to school and I heard their mom say "isn't that pretty?". I thought they had gone and I went into the next room and there I saw the kids peeking into that window. But the window is higher and they were just kindergarten age. So I see five little faces, all bundled up in hats and scarfs as we had frost last night, standing on tip-toe with their little hands covered in warm mittens holding to my window sill to look at my Santas and smiling and going ooh and aah ! That was so cute !!! Wish I had my camera ready, would have been a great picture !
And a couple of days ago I made a wreath for my neighbor and friend, Monique. Every year I give a wreath to someone I care about. She has become a good friend and is a very warm hearted person. She was so overwhelmed she cried !
Making people happy, THAT IS CHRISTMAS TO ME !!!!

This is the window with Santas they were looking at.
And this is the kind of wreath I gave Monique.

The joys and innocence of children when Christmas comes around. To see a child's smile or twinkle in their eye at the sight of a Christmas tree or Santa. You are an angel to give them a smile and a memory. Your neighbors are blessed to have you in their lives. That is what Christmas is all about.....
