"My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that?"

Hi Lydia,
Thanks so much for the Good Wishes & the Beautiful Music. Having grown up in the Missouri Lutheran Church, many in our Congregation were of German Ancestry and most still Celebrated both our Traditional Christmas, as well as "Old" Christmas as they called it. In fact, my Mother always would decorate around a week before December 25th and our tree and all decorations remained up until after "Old" Christmas. Thank You for sharing this with us.
Phil
