a magical time

i love when the heat shifts and you can feel the change in the seasons. here in L.A. thats not always easy. lol
we had a lightning storm the other day and it reminded of when i was a kid....
our whole family under the same roof. i sorta of miss those days.
anyways, one nite our parents woke us up to the amazing vision of lightning in their bedroom window. we had a panoramic view...
it is such a wonderful memory to be with my family, in the middle of the nite making a memory.
alas, we are all grown up now- and really the only nite now as adults where we recall our younger years is christmas eve.
i suppose thats why i love this time of year so much- we all wear our matching pajamas and its ok to be a kid again.
when things were more simple.
setting up traps for santa and trying to watch as mom and dad wrapped presents.
secretly, we didn't really want to catch him but the joy of plotting together- simply magical.
for that one nite we could suspend belief in reindeer that fly and dreams that come true.
it turns out they do, it just takes a little imagination...
christmas reminds me to keep my spirit young and remember the nites when anything is possible as long as your with the one's you love
