January 4

Adam took down the Christmas tree while Isaac and I were at his baseball clinic. When we got home, this is all that remained of our holiday display:

I paused to look at it for a few moments and noticed how the lights made the glittery star even more glittery, and the sight made me smile.

See, I love sparkle. I have sparkly shoes and nail polish and shirts with glittery threads woven through the fabric. As I am wont to say, I like glitter because it reflects light, and The Light is a beautiful, beautiful thing.
