Three Muses - Tis the Season


Each of us has our own special Christmas memories, traditions that vary from family to family, from religion to religion,  from country to country.   It's a time of good cheer, love for our fellow man, and a time to savor the gift of giving.   It's about worship and gratitude, children and magic,  good food  and family,,,,,,,and a time of year that brings out the very best in us.    I wish we could bottle up these good things and make them last all year!.   
Credits:  Santa is from Flickr Collage Images,  the window from Jenn U Designs, and the child from Jesse Wilcox Smith, and the background is mine.  All else is googled.

    On checking out after commenting I happened to see the word BEVERLIAN (by Chris). What a hoot!! We should bottle and preserve that one for future use.
