We received our first snowfall this afternoon and evening. The ground has a fresh and fluffy white coating and I for one am thinking of a white Christmas.
Once the Christmas jollies started, I remembered that I hadn’t sent my wish list to the family yet - I’m always early as you can tell.
Although, for anyone who knows me for more than a week, they can surmise what will be on my Christmas list.
I love to read, and soon after I picked up my first book the joke became, “Lyd wants books for Christmas” - there was that one year I wanted a bike, but that was an anomaly.
This year, I am happy to report, is consistent with the trend. My problem is always which books do I ask for.
My bride and I do not yet have our Henry Higgins library, so I tend to pick books I know for certain will stay with us.
That may sound odd, but when you have moved as often as we have for the last 6 years, you start packing before you pack.
A few of the books on my list this year are:
-Humble Inquiry: The Gentle Art of Asking Instead of Telling
-The Grand Weaver: How God Shapes Us Through the Events of Our Lives
-Tribe of Mentors: Short Life Advice from the Best in the World
That is a small helping of my Amazon wish list - I know better than to drop my entire list on the family nowadays.
We shall wait and see if they acquiesce to my requests or they decide to switch it up on me this year.
What is on your Christmas wish list this year? Is it the same every year?
