It’s funny how you can go through 11 months of the year, but the minute that December arrives (or nearly) you entire way of thinking changes. I went looking for some quotes about the season and thought that I would share some of the best…

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. Norman Vincent Peale

Christmas isn’t a season. It’s a feeling.
Edna Ferber

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.
Dr. Seuss

I wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it every month.
Harlan Miller

There’s nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.
Erma Bombeck

I think that if I had to pick just one, it would have to be the words of Erma Bombeck. This Christmas morning, I do want to wake up with all the excitement I remember as a kid. I don’t think that I ever slept on Christmas Eve. I was just like that little kid on that Disney commericial who is just so excited about going to Disney World that he simply can’t sleep!
