My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that?
-Bob Hope
And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.
– Dr. Seuss
Christmas, my child, is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it’s Christmas.
-Dale Evans Rogers
Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can’t see.

Baby’s first Christmas
It’s Baby’s first Christmas, what a beautiful sight!
As he gurgles out loud in spontaneous delight.
As he gazes at the tree, with it’s baubles and trim
I know only he can hear the angels sweet hymns.
Holy! Holy! Holy!
As He edges ever nearer to the base of the tree,
Picks up tiny toys and shakes them with glee
Mommy and Daddy have to laugh outright.
It’s baby’s first Christmas – what a wonderful night!
Holy! Holy! Holy!
