December.

And so it begins. The countdown to the big day.

December. The month of glowing lights, cosy nights and an excuse to eat chocolate for breakfast.
The season of finding that perfect present, cuddling up with loved ones, stuffing your face until you burst and the air filled with the sweet smell of mulled wine and pine needles.

I feel very blessed to have all my family living close by but nevertheless, life sometimes runs away with you.
Christmas is the time when, even though it may be the busiest time of the year, life seems to slow down a little and you make time for the things that matter.
It really is a wonderful time of year.
