It’s probably the poorest–monetarily speaking– yet the most blessed and satisfying Christmas season for me.

Getting ready to move on to my new career, having the opportunities to catch up with many old and new friends, celebrating Jesus’s birthday at church with Christmas productions and Christmas Carols two weekends straight…and many other awesome things.

But on top of everything else, being able to spend the Christmas season at home after 4 years is just something I can’t be thankful enough 🙂

Enjoying Mom’s handmade breakfast every morning

Watching movies (or Food Network) on TV then napping with Mom in the afternoon

Decorating my first Christmas tree in 5 years

Delicious Christmas Eve dinner at home

It is this kind of simple happiness that makes you the happiest person on earth.

Perhaps even more than Thanksgiving, my Christmas is filled with thankfulness. I just can’t stop wowing thinking about all the amazing things that happened in my life this year.

2 Corinthians 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

For everyone who is reading this, I wish you too enjoy your holiday season with your kind of simple happiness 🙂
