Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

“One can never have enough socks," said Dumbledore.

 "Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn't 

get a single pair. People will insist on giving me books.” 

― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin; 

Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Glad to share with you Holiday entertaining idea from Svetlana Roma!

What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. 

What if Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!”
