I thought that I would share that with you because it is only the greatest Christmas movie ever made and clearly my favorite. My father has called me Little Cindy Lou Who since I can remember and I look forward to watching "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" every year.
So my mother gets frustrated with me every year but I have never been one to make a Christmas list and tell her what I want and this year is no different. I have always been the one that goes above and beyond with everyone else's gifts. I get so much joy out of buying things for others. To see their faces light up and the smiles come across their faces as their hearts leap with happiness and excitement...there is just something about it that warms my soul. Spencer even has to remind me from time to time that I have to save some ideas for the following year because prices have never been a huge deal to me. (Now don't get me wrong...I never spend more than I can afford but I don't hold back either.)
Now I have to inform you that Christmas is such more to me than ribbons and tags. It's more than packages, boxes, or bags. It is in watching the people around me and the hearts that sometimes get lost in the chaos of everyday life throughout the year but always seem to find their way back home during this season. It's that time of year that people give from their hearts, people reach out to those that need it the most, and family becomes the most important thing to basically everyone. I have always said that it is the one time of year that you get a small glimpse of what world peace would be like and I truly believe that. So be safe this Christmas and rejoice in having the family around. May our hearts grow three sizes this season and may God bless us in ways we never dreamed of. Spencer and I send our love to all of you. Merry Christmas to all and to all a happy December!!! Let's bring on the New Year with a blast and lots of love in our hearts!

It was fun seeing you at the family part Sat. I have to agree that the grinch is a holiday classic.
Thanks for sharing such a great blog Nikki. We missed seeing you and Spencer at the family Christmas party. I had surgery on the Friday before and was in the hospital for a few days. We always look forward to the family party and really missed seeing everyone. I too love the Grinch and the story of WhoVille. Merry Christmas to you and your family! God Bless.
Nikki,
I agree!!! I love Christmas and all that it brings. I, too, missed seeing you at the Christmas party. Hope you and Spencer have a very Merry Christmas and may you find great joy in the new year!!
