MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
It’s that time of year again where they play all those songs

“The Christmas Shoes”.
I get a lump in my throat whenever I hear this song
- even more when I’m driving at night alone.… —-> Continue…
I’d like you to take a moment and recall your favorite Christmas ever.
Just hang out there for bit – no rush to get away;
