Today's post is from guest blogger Thomas Kinkade, painter of light, and the creator, with Teleflora, of the Thomas Kinkade Sleigh Ride Bouquet, one of our gorgeous Christmas flower arrangements.
Hopefully you’re already enjoying your Sleigh Ride Bouquet. Maybe it’s sitting above the fireplace or on a shelf near the Christmas tree right now. The house is also decorated with other holiday flowers and Christmas centerpieces in almost every room.
Make this Christmas special for many reasons. The love offered by your family and friends is so meaningful that we should never forget how priceless it truly is — even for a second. Nanette, our children, our family and all of our friends, collectors and employees — I wish for you a holiday that will shine on everyone and everything that comes into contact with you during this holiday season and throughout the entire year.
An unknown author wrote something about Christmas that always resonates with me, which is why I published it in my book I’ll Be Home for Christmas:
“The door is on the latch tonight, the hearth-fire is aglow, I seem to hear soft passing feet — The Christ child is in the snow. My heart is open wide tonight for stranger, kith or kin; I would not bar a single door where love might enter in.”
That says it simply and completely. Happy Holidays to All!
