I was recently asked about my favorite part of the holiday season.

I love the snow, the lights, the giving of gifts, and even the Christmas music! I’m a “Christmas-music-before-Thanksgiving” kind of person.

And while all that is great, my absolute favorite part of the season is when my dad reads the Christmas story at our family gathering. It’s a story we all know, but it just has such a special meaning to me. Will you join me in this story?

With gratitude,
