Happy December, friends!  I absolutely LOVE this time of year; it’s truly my favorite.  The lights, decor, traditions, songs – it’s all so, so good.

And while I think its certainly wonderful to celebrate and enjoy all of these things, I don’t want to lose sight of rejoicing over our Savior’s entrance into the world.  May He be the focus and center of our lives, not just this month but always!
