conv: Spending time with friends during Christmas always makes me happy. I'm really looking forward to it this year_comma_ we're so close to December! I can't wait for it to be Christmas already. Just thinking about that time of year makes me really happy. I feel the same way as well!  I get really excited thinking about decorating and giving gifts! Exactly! And the food_comma_ and friends. All of it is just so lovely. I agree!  Everything that surrounds Christmas makes me smile and feel content.  It makes me thankful for everything good in life!
