A Heartwarming Christmas Story

December 17, 2019 by Lisa Leave a Comment

I’ve written about my favorite Christmas albums in the past. I’m a big fan of records from Elvis, Sharon Jones and She & Him. I’m also the biggest fan of It’s My Favorite Time of Year—a CD sold at the cash registers at Boston Store (and Carson’s) back in like 1996.

I truly thought my mom and I were the only people who liked this CD so much. I mean, who else would remember a regional department store-branded Christmas CD from 25 years ago?

Well, someone else did.

This summer I got an email from a woman asking me about this CD. She found my blog post and told me all about how she and her family loved this CD when she was younger, but unfortunately, it got lost and she’d been trying to find a copy ever since.

So through the magic of the internet, I sent this lovely gal (with amazing taste) all the songs. It felt good to know that someone else would be enjoying them this season.

And then this sweet girl sent me truly the most heartwarming thank you note I’ve ever received. Like ever. I teared up. It was really touching.

So, if you’re reading this It’s My Favorite Time of Year fan, know once again that you warmed my heart and lifted my spirits. I hope you and your family have a happy holiday (and same to the rest of you readers).
