Come back to the heart of Christmas!

Sorry that I missed writing in my blog last night, I wasn’t feeling well at all. It seems like we keep passing this junk, back and forth to each other. Jeff was home sick, and the found out at the DR today that he has bronchitis.
Lauren is heading to the DR tomorrow, fun place around here.

I heard this Christmas song on the radio the other day and really loved the words, thought it would be good to read more than once during this Holiday Season. I hope you are able to really enjoy it too! I am hoping that my health improves so that we can do more as a family, right now we are all just laying around like a bunch of boneless chickens! Smile  Didn’t you just get a visual on that one about the Chickens? Smile

Good night dear friends!

Come back to the heart of Christmas!

I'm gonna make a wish this Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer
I'm gonna stop here for a moment
Before the moment disappears


The world's in a hurry this December
City streets and shopping malls
I wish we could slow down and remember
The meaning of it all


Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don't miss it, the heart of Christmas


Let's make it feel the way it used to
Let's find that wonder of a child
You can see the magic all around you
Come on, and open up your eyes


You can find it in the warm embrace of your family
Or calling up a long lost friend
You can even find it in the eyes of stranger
When you reach out a helping hand


Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don't miss it, the heart of Christmas


In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find Him in a manger
The heart of Christmas has a name


I'm gonna make a wish this Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas


Live while you can and cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas


Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don't miss it, the heart of Christmas

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e56540-matthew_west~the_heart_of_christmas_lyrics.html ]

“The best Christmas gift of all is the presence of a happy family all wrapped up with one another.”

“Let's approach Christmas with an expectant hush,
rather than a last-minute rush.”

“It is not the gift, but the thought that counts.”     ~Van Dyke
