December 10

I was coming down the stairs to watch a movie (Daddy's Home 2, for the record; close enough to a holiday flick for us) with Adam and Abby a few minutes ago. I paused on the landing to look down at the Christmas tree, and the sight made me smile.

There's something so cozy and relaxing about Christmas lights. It's almost as if they emanate a sense of calm that only exists at Christmas time. So yep, I breathed in the atmosphere for a few moments and then continued on with my evening. It's not always easy to find moments of respite so for this one, I'm thankful.
