The 9th day of Christmas
"If you desire to find the true spirit of Christmas and partake of the sweetness of it, let me make this suggestion to you. During the hurry of the festive occasion of this Christmas season, find time to turn your heart to God. Perhaps in the quiet hours, and in a quiet place, and on your knees—alone or with loved ones—give thanks for the good things that have come to you, and ask that His Spirit might dwell in you as you earnestly strive to serve Him and keep His commandments" (Howard W. Hunter, "The Real Christmas," Ensign, Dec 2005, 22–25).

great quote today. many people often wonder how they can 'find the Christmas spirit'. It's as simple as taking a quiet moment to pray and give thanks and to ask for his spirit to be with you. Good stuff.
What a fun idea and a great way to remember Christmas this year. I love all of your days. Thanks for sharing!
