Today the kids and I spend most of the morning decorating for the season. It was so fun to see Molly and Ryan discover all the ornaments like it was the first time. There is so much wonder that just glows from my kids. It is really easy to “catch” a sense of wonder too.

Here are some other senses we love during Christmastime:

We hear the jingle bell ring as the door opens and closes.

Take a few moments today and slow down to find your five senses of Christmastime.

Love,
