More than a day or a

season, Christmas is an

experience of the heart

-- one that prompts us

to give the very best of

ourselves to those around

us. Inspired by this

understanding we find

that within each of us

there lives a little bit of

the kind old gentleman

we ve come to associate

with the spirit of giving.

Caught up in that same

spirit, all our holiday

preparations become an

expression of the love

and warmth that fills

our hearts. This special

book was written to help

you fashion the best

celebration ever. With its

help, may you discover

anew the joys of

Christmas and create a

memory to carry in your

heart throughout the

year!.
