The wonder and delight of rosy-cheeked children on this special morning
The simple joys of one's own hearth and home
The warmth and love shared by family and friends
The luxury of time, to reminisce
The retelling of family stories, decades old
The unbridled enthusiasm of children
The wisdom of our elders
The taste and aroma of Christmas dinner, lovingly prepared
The lingering, at the end of the day, not wanting this day to end
