I was chipping away at Christmas cards today, which reminded me to come back around to your post again! My interest is SO PIQUED about the history of Hallmark, thanks to you - I had no idea Dali did a design?! Incredible.
A friend gifted me "All Creation Waits" this Advent (not sure how I didn't own that one yet, haha!), and the bit about the bees is so poignant. Thanks for your beautiful reflections.
Thanks, Jane! It's good to know there are many of us. 😊 I do love that Christmas isn't just one day. I wouldn't feel any peace during Advent if it was.
Erin, thank you for your post! It could (partially, anyway) have been written by me: the Christmas cards, the wrapping of gifts in the wee hours. This year I kind of have it together, as far as gifts go ... and possible Christmas cards/newsletters. We'll see what comes together when all is said and done. The one lovely thing about returning to my Catholic faith, is that Christmastide can last 40 days. So, my usual tardiness is no longer tardy :).

Thank you, Kristin! This post was full of new-to-me information that needed to be shared.
Another favorite essay in "All Creation Waits" is the one about chickadees.
