these things make me happy.

playing the dance of the sugar plum fairy on piano by christmas-light.

watching levi read the real winnie-the-pooh book to himself.

having a much needed family time at christmas town.

and saying my first "merry christmas" of the season.

successfully taking pictures of the oodles of lights strewn about.

the reality that i'll be a graduate next sunday.

coffee dates to look forward to.

cable-knitting.

setting up the miniature manger scene i've had since i was like 4

.

an entire 4 weeks of advent to enjoy amidst the crazy schedules.

so much support from family and friends.

the feeling you get when people tell you they're praying for you, and you know it's real.

you guys have a great week.
