What can I say – I’ve been in a nostalgic frame of mind for a while now. If you were to peek in my closet, you’d see what I mean.

They called it a miracle that Pope Francis had survived his most recent illness. While not looking well, he made appearances at the balcony to bless the faithful. He seemed to be returning to his role as the head of the Church slowly. Many believed their prayers had been answered.

Over the years, Hubby has allowed me (or put up with) my obsession for all things Christmas. From watching every sappy Hallmark Movie ever made, to hunting down ugly sweaters and insisting everyone wear one to matching PJs when Kiddo was a wee one. Love it all.
