Where'd Christmas go?

Christmas has come and gone and a new year is quickly approaching. My husband and I were commenting to each other yesterday how it seemed like Christmas came and went in quite a hurry this year. It was here and then the day was done. It was fun but it was busy. Opening presents...twice. People coming and going. Multiple family members coming down with the flu. But we made it. Maybe it flew because of how much was going on. You know what they say: "Lord, how the day passes! It's like a life: so quickly when we don't watch it, so slowly when we do." (John Steinbeck, East of Eden). It sure was a great reminder to look back on the blur of the day and see that ultimately it wasn't the presents we gave or got that matter, its the moments we got to experience with the people we love. Its the opportunity we were blessed enough to be part of in celebrating our Savior's birth.
