When I awoke from my slumber this morning, I had a familiar feeling. A feeling that while familiar, it's a feeling that does not come around often.  In fact, its quite a rare feeling indeed. I'm sure we all remember the excitement of Christmas eve as a child. A somewhat happy nervous feeling located in the pit of our stomachs. That's the feeling that I experienced this morning and am continuing to experience as I write this blog from my desk at its North Carolina location.
