Whether your décor is elegant or effortless,
your celebration extravagant or simple,
I wish you a Merry Christmas
and a Holiday Season spent with the people you love.
I pray you enjoy every moment and create wonderful memories.
I hope you are graced with the joy of giving
while exercising the capacity to receive.
May you be the Christmas spirit to strangers
and the Christmas light to those who know you.
May you be both generous and sensible.
May you have the wisdom to know what really is important
and feel the joy in the tiniest of gestures.
May your blessings be abundant.
May your time be well spent.
May you have all you need.
May you experience the true grace of this season.
May you know that you are loved beyond measure.
May you know you are blessed a million times over.

Thanks Suzicate! It’s a blessing to know you. Merry Christmas!

That is a wonderfully comprehensive set of Christmas wishes!
Can’t top that, so have to fall back on the standard Merry Christmas and Happy and Prosperous New Year!
I think your “standard” is every bit as comprehensive, after all it’s the sentiment that counts!
Beautiful Christmas post, Suzi!

Our first Christmas without one of our children was hard. It is getting easier. A change in expectations.
I’m trying to enjoy the time I have.
“A change in expectations” – that’s it exactly. Thank you, and wishing you the same.
Beautiful wishes from a beautiful, wise, woman. Thank you. Wishing you all you wish and dream of over the holidays.
