'UnPerfect' Holiday Blessings

Just taking a few moments to wish you a Happy Holidays!

We rush around day and night, making sure to get all of the details completed for our 'perfect Holidays'. Why do we do this? To create memories. The question I have for you is..."What makes a memory 'memorable'?" Is it those 'perfect' moments, or is it the moments that make you smile and laugh? Those moments where the turkey was supposed to be 'perfect', but you forgot to turn the oven on, and ended up with holiday meatloaf. Those moments where those 'perfectly' decorated cookies you were going to be handing out to neighbors - ends up being more icing on the kids, then on the cookies. Those moments where you took time to decorate the tree 'perfect', but the kitty decided to climb it, and drag it down the hallway, as you see all of your work strewn about the house, and have to start over. Those moments where you wrap the present 'perfectly', only to look at the ones already wrapped, and you see that the dog got into 'Uncle Billy's' summer sausage log, or the cat decided that they wanted to play with all of the bows and ribbons, and you have to re-wrap them.

What I am trying to say is that the more 'unperfect' the moment, the more memorable it will be, and filled with laughter and delight! So, on that note, I wish you 'Unperfect Happy Holidays!'

God bless! :)
