Christmas Eve is often more hectic than Christmas Day. There are last-minute gifts to buy, presents to wrap, ribbons to curl, food to prepare, and cookies to bake and leave out for Santa. For those who celebrate Christmas, I hope you can take a moment to just breathe, feel your heart beat, and be present with yourself and your gentlest thoughts of what brings you joy.
And now for Virginia’s state Christmas tree. Of course it has a Northern Cardinal, our state bird. I love the Virginia Bluebells, too.
And to all a good night.
