"I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.
'We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,'
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December."
- Oliver Herford, I Heard a Bird Sing
I hope everyone enjoyed their time with family and friends last week. Don’t you just love this time of year? I love all the holiday festivities and hustle and bustle! There is so much going on and we hope you are able to join us for as much as possible. Let your light shine through those dark evenings of December.
