Christmas time

Another year, another Christmas. Why does it seem like the time BEFORE Christmas used to feel like it took forever to get through when you're a child, but it goes in a blink as an adult? If you could just go back in time, and relive those moments, would you?


I love how the feelings are still very childlike in everyone around me... the anticipation is still very much the same. Our eyes gleam with the excitement of present-opening time. We give in to the eating of Christmas cookies, pumpkin & apple pie, with child-like abandon. We relive those feelings of joy that it seems like children only have. It's the time when it's "okay" to be a child again! That's one of the very best parts of Christmas, I think.
