Advent Conspiracy

Because after all, Christmas is a state of mind more than anything. Whether it's a pleasant state is up to you.

Thanksgiving is ostensibly about turkey but what really happens in most families is that we give "presence" to family members. Perhaps the fact that there are no "presents" at Thanksgiving is one reason that makes it such a valued holiday.

Beautiful post, Miss C. Great observation, Ed. Our family loves getting together without a million superfluous gifts as the price of admission. We still give to kids & those less fortunate. My friend has her children give all of last years gifts to drives that redistribute them to those less fortunate. I'm sending this link to everyone on my email list.
