Does Christmas have a sound?
Jingle bells, Christmas Carols, the electric mixer whirring cookie batter . . .

Does Christmas have a taste?
Rich hot chocolate, sweet, crunchy cookies, peppermint candy canes . . .

Does Christmas have a smell?
Evergreen boughs, turkey in the oven, memories of the scent of new fallen snow . . .

Does Christmas have a touch?
A warm hug, the grasp of a hand, a tear sliding down my cheek . . .

You’ve totally surrounded my senses with reminders of
Your birth, Your forgiveness, Your wonder, Your unconditional love . . .

Thank you for bringing me to my senses, Baby Jesus.
Christmas is You.
