~Christmas Waves Its Wand~




"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful."

~Norman Vincent Peale~



"Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts."

~Joann Winmill Brown~





"Like snowflakes, my Christmas memories gather and dance -
ever beautiful, unique, and gone too soon."

~Deborah Whips~



"The perfect Christmas Tree?  All Christmas trees are perfect."

~Charles Barnard~



"The best gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other."

~Burton Hillis~



I wish we could put up some of the Christmas  spirit in a jar and open a jar of it every month."

~Harlan Miller~



"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all year."

~Charles Dickens~
