MY DECEMBER

Sunday, December 1
december has always felt like mine.

being a december baby, i was quick to claim the whole month and all it's magic and twinkle lights as my own. before i understood christmas, i thought the trees and ribbon and lights and carols were all to celebrate my birthday and I LOVED IT ALL. i felt so special, that the whole world would celebrate my birthday for almost an entire month. i used to tell anyone who would listen that i was the luckiest and famousest (big word for a 3 year old) girl in the world.

this year, i'll be 28. of course, i know all about christmas and i no longer have illusions of world-wide fame. but i still feel like the luckiest girl, and the magic of december still feels like it's all mine. the warm twinkle lights, the soft falling snow, that merry magic feeling… it's like december greets me with a handful of confetti and a very happy merry birthday wish!

i'll take it :)
