Holidays: Oh, Holy Night

Without a doubt, there is magic swirling around indoors during the holidays.  A catch-it-if-you-can variety in our household.

But, after a fresh dusting of snow, I feel lucky to step outside.  To breathe in the mystery and the cold air.  To glimpse at our home from the outside in.  To take a short walk up the empty street.  The lines blur and the sounds are amplified in the darkness, laced with white lights and the glow of the moon on snow.  

I do feel lucky to witness the mystery and the magic, both outside and in.
