A group of seven people, five women and two men, stand and smile in front of a white house with green shrubs in decorative planters. All are dressed in casual, neutral-colored clothing, with some wearing jeans and sweaters. Everyone appears happy and relaxed.

My heart is so happy right now.

I am SO THANKFUL for each and every one of you.

You made this year the best.

You made this year the brightest.

You made this year even more than I could have ever dreamed or hoped for.

I’ll be back after Christmas with our handmade gifts and all my favorite posts from the year and my favorite books from 2024, but for now, I’m slowing down this week to enjoy time with family and friends.  Before I go, I wanted to take a moment and wish you the merriest of Christmas.

I wish I could send each of you a card.

I wish I could invite you over for hot chocolate and Christmas movies.

I wish I could drop a hostess gift at your door.

But for now, these virtual holiday wishes will have to do.

Merry, Merry Christmas Rock Star
