Christmas Time is Here - Kathy Caprino

Christmas Time is Here Hello friends!   I hope you are enjoying your holiday season and the fast approach of our new year. Christmastime for me  is a joyful time, full of warm, cozy  holiday memoriesof decorating the tree, a foot of snow outside (I grew up in upstate NY!), caroling, enjoying eggnog with friends, and treasuring the many blessings of the season.   As my children are teens now, the bustle and rush of preparing for Christmas is a bit less frenetic than it used to be.   So Im taking this special time to slow down (what a beautiful concept!)   to relish all thats around me, and to feel deep inside the fullness of my  gratitude for friends, family and my life. Part of enjoying the holidays is  celebrating a new tradition with my husband, jazz percussionist Arthur Lipner.   As we both love music deeply, weve had a great time choosing a special holiday song, and recording it together. This year, we chose Christmas Time is Here: Click here to listen Heres our tune from last year:     Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas Hope you like them! I deeply appreciate being in community with you, and receiving each day the amazing gifts of  wisdom, humor, insight, and  support  from my colleagues, friends and peers.   Youve helped make this year a wonderful one, full of joy, growth and learning.   May the New Year bring to you all that you hold dear. Happy Holidays, and joy and peace in 2011 and always. Much love,   Kathy
