I don’t know about you, but I’m in desperate need of some peace right now.

Fussy baby, busy holiday season, a house full of boys, the events of last week…

Peace doesn’t seem to stick around for long.

Music is one of the things that brings me peace, so I’ve put together a playlist of peaceful Christmas music that I an turn on whenever I need to quiet my soul.

Here is what’s on my list… {song, artist, album}
