Christmas is entrancing. It is only during the magic of Christmas time that people of all ages are able to set aside the rigors and challenges that punctuate our day to day lives and embrace the wonder, hope and happiness that December ushers in each year. This spirit is present all around us at Christmas, from the twinkling lights that adorn evergreens kissed by a gentle snowfall to the special, albeit fevered, shopping for those whom we love most dearly. Of course, let’s not forget about mistletoe, Christmas cookies, Santa Claus, stockings hung by a crackling fire and that delicious Christmas dinner we share with loved ones.
