Remembering...

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.  And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.  And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger."
Luke 2

Last night I was talking to my Mom on the phone and complaining about how I had to finish all my holiday baking, get packed up, finish shopping, etc. and about how tired I already am.  She gave me some wise advice {as she always does} and was telling me to forget all the stuff that doesn't matter.  And at that moment it hit me, I have gotten carried away in all the frivolous things and all for nothing.  I am so grateful for this Christmas season and am vowing to cut out all the stress and enjoy the rest of the season.  So for now...Au Revoir and Merry Christmas!
