But before the chaos of Christmas morning truly hits you, take a moment to remember the meaning of the holiday. Whether or not you're a practicing Christian, churches around Annapolis open their doors for some late night reflection. Enjoy one last evening of carols and harp music, or take the time to get back to your faithful roots.

Whatever you do, wherever you go, take a moment to hold your family tight to you and remind them of how much you love them. Recognize the blessings that surround you.
