If you told me to write a love song tonight, I'd have a lot of trouble. But if you tell me to write a love song about a girl with a red dress who goes into a bar and is on her fifth martini and is falling off her chair, that's a lot easier, and it makes me free to say anything I want.

Five Days Until Christmas

 

When we got home from the hospital yesterday, we were greeted by a box of things from my in-laws, and inside were two hand-made cards from my nieces.

This was done by Sophia, an astonishing child of many gifts who tickles me every time I talk to her.

And this was done by Savannah, who has a heart of gold and is a gem of a young lady.

Both girls have shared their art with me in the past and they're both extraordinarily talented. To have received their cards means the world to me.

Which goes to show that it's not the size or expense of the gift that matters at all, but the amount of soul you put into it.

I encourage you to take from Sophia's and Savannah's examples, and do something personal for someone this Christmas. You might touch someone in a very memorable way.

Right on, and well said.
