Wonder-Full Favorites
I'm not going to get to all my favorite Christmas stuff.
But I'm going to try.
Today I present two of my favorite Christmas books.
We are a book loving family and this has, in part, been fostered by aunts who love books, too.
Each year, Aunt Kathy bought a beautiful book for the kids. And each year we poured over the always vibrant and unique drawings and savored the words that wove fascinating stories.
I don't remember if Aunt Kathy gave us these books, or if we got them through another source, but I do remember that they enveloped us with warmth and memories and a sense of awe from one Christmas to the next Christmas and beyond. These simple stories still reside with us and are opened but every once in awhile, always with smiles and a sliver of wonder.
