If you were only allowed to listen to one Christmas song (gasp!), what would it be? Which song stands out from your childhood memories? Brings the most emotion? Wraps Christmas up for you with a beautiful bow? That’s an easy one for me. Silent Night. For a number of reasons. It talks about why we…

The Manger and the Cross
Jesus came at Christmas so we could celebrate Easter. That is the reason for the season. Not all the bright lights, tinsel, Santa, presents, etc. While all of that is fun—it’s not the true meaning of Christmas. Do we remember this or do we bury ourselves in festivities forgetting the One who came to give us…
Stocking Surprises
The house was still, we were nicely tucked into our beds, but Susan and I were wide awake. Murray was probably fast asleep. Maybe. “Can you see anything?” I said. Susan shone the flashlight toward the door, illuminating the stuffed stocking hanging on the doorknob. “Yup, they’re full. Santa came!” I sat up in my…
Merry Christmas!

I’m taking a break from blogging this week but just wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Plus, I wanted to leave you with an amazing song done a little differently by Pentatonix. Merry Christmas from…
Winter Snow Song
I have a deep dark secret . . . are you ready? 🙂 I love snow and winter! People think I’m crazy. What can I say? Maybe it’s the writer and introvert in me, but it’s the perfect time to hibernate. It’s cold, snowy, and you’re cooped up. What more could you want? Oh .…
The Chosen One – Coffee With Mary
I sit at the corner table of the quaint, cozy café and stare out the window, daydreaming about sugar-plums, reindeer, and stockings hung by a fireplace with care. One thought races through my mind with Christmas only four days away. Will it snow? Pretty please? There’s nothing like colored lights shining through a carpet of…
Christmas Colouring!
Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year. We not only celebrate our Saviour’s birth, but spend time with our families. It’s such a precious time! Christmas morning has many memories. One of my favourites is opening our stockings. You’ll find more about that in this post. Click on Stocking Fun! Then there…
From My Playlist – All Is Well
Christmas Day has come and gone in a flash! It always does. Did you enjoy your time together with family and friends? I’m taking a little break from blogging during a much-needed downtime but wanted to leave you with one more song of the season. This is a newer one for me. I love Michael and Carrie together.…

From My Playlist – Winter Star
Do you remember waiting for Christmas to come? When we were young, it seemed to take FOREVER to get here. You know what I’m talking about. The anticipation builds inside you every day, threatening to bubble and spill over? Christmas just couldn’t get here fast enough! Now as I’m getting older, the season comes and…
