Reading this brought so many memories back from when I was young. In this day and age when we are so caught up in shopping and presents and packages and dinners and parties, it is important to take a little time to stop and enjoy the moment.  As my brother reminded us this week:

From our family to yours, have a Merry Christmas!  Please enjoy your family and friends and make some new memories.
