IMG_6188Christmas. Christmas is my absolute favorite holiday. And while it’s always more stressful than I think it’s going to be, I love it all the same. I had such an amazing day with my family, giving and getting presents, eating some of the most delicious food, and just getting to take a little break from the world.

Family. It’s so fantastic to be home for the holidays, and the best part about it is getting to be with my family. I’ve gotten to see almost everyone in my extended family…all my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandmothers…it’s been such a blessing.

Joy. Yesterday was really stressful, and despite my immense love for Christmas, I still didn’t think it was going well around 5PM. However, after dinner, I realized that I was just being selfish and I needed to look at the day with a little brighter perspective, and it got much  better.

 

What are you grateful for today?
