It’s almost time for Jolly Ol’ Saint Nick to squeeze through each and every chimney in town and well to be quite honest, I get just as excited about Christmas as my kids do. But do you want to know what I wish for more than Christmas? A white Christmas! I don’t think I ever remember it snowing on Christmas Day. That's just doesn't happen very often in the lovely state of Maryland
. If anyone out there remembers the last time they saw a White Christmas in Maryland, please let me know when it happened.
Picture this - A steady snow, a nice fire in the fireplace, and some hot tea or apple cider. Mmm mmm good. Oh and don’t forget – not a place in the world that you have to be other than on your sofa or in your bed. Ha...and the kids wonder why I can’t wait for it to snow, or better yet for it to snow on Christmas Day. The funny thing is, while I am ready for it to snow, they aren’t, and I couldn’t figure out why. I asked my ten year old why he was so opposed to it snowing on Christmas and he told me that if it snowed, he knew he wouldn’t be able to go around and collect his Christmas presents from his grandparents’ houses. I knew there had to be some underlying cause.
