Christmas...

It's only 74 days away.

That means we have 73 shopping/mailing days left.

I've already started my Christmas shopping. I have 1 gift for my oldest son, a gift for my parents, MIL, Aunt-In-Law, BIL, SIL (2 for SIL, actually).

I also have a Christmas novella coming out with By Grace. I have a Sneak Peak page that tells all about the novella, which is entitled Christmas Grace. I really love this story, and hope you take a moment to check out the Sneak Peak page link.
