December 1

Today is the first day in our 25 Days of Christmas! To get us started, here is a wonderful quote from none other than Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol:
...I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.

May we make our own Christmas celebrations this year kind, forgiving, and charitable. Merry Christmas!!

For Your Information...
