Day 548 ~ Top Seven of December, #2

Eighteen days until Christmas!  Oh my!!

I think I am going to do something different on my blog for December all together.

1. Last year I did the 12 days of Christmas, which I will do again starting the 14th- which I am sure doesn't make any sense starting on the 14th that is, but if you count the 14th, then the 25th is the twelth day.
2. This year I was invited to write four posts the #IAS, Doug Bender's book Live Second: 365 Ways to Make Jesus First  from December 9th through the 12th . .
3. Soooo. . .  I have decided that throught the 8th I would share the top Seven things I love about December . . . 
4. And for the last six days of the year, a look back at 2012. 

Top 7 things I love about December . . .

And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.  ~ Matthew 2:11

I think I see another challenge off in the near distance. . .
