It's Christmas, But Easter Is Coming
Another C h r i s t m a s season is upon us and at least for northeastern Ohio, our weather has done its best to cooperate. With a snowy wonderland outside, my home has a different feeling. I can’t explain it, but there’s an unusual quiet and calmness not present at any other time. Peering through the window at the deep snow stirs within me a momentary vision: A cold winter night, a crackling fire, steaming hot cocoa and no other light except that of my twinkling C h r i s t m a s tree. Then in a flash, my dream is gone, because C h r i s t m a s is full of necessary activity. Shopping, cleaning, baking, wrapping presents and holiday parties are all a part of the excitement of C h r i s t m a s and what makes this season fun.
