A KISS.

There is so much magic behind a kiss: the warmth, the love, the wave of emotion that spreads from your lips through your entire body and resonates warmly at the heart. I've never really considered it before, but perhaps a kiss is the world's most magical simplicity.

CHRISTMASTIME IS NEAR.

 It's so magical at our apartment! We spent the weekend decorating both the inside and out. Christmas music streaming and the two best roommates by my side.

Twinkling lights wrap around the railings of our thirty seven steps and outline the porch, guiding the way to our shining tree as it stands perfectly in the middle window.

It is a sight to see! Warms the heart and adds a bit of sparkle to my eyes. The start to a very merry Christmas.
