Join Abe and Elaine this Christmas as we give mistletoe a deeper meaning than just holiday décor.

Historically, mistletoe stayed green when everything around it died back in winter, which made it a symbol of hope, renewal, and connection. Over time it became a reminder to pause, soften, share a kiss, and come close.

This year we’re practicing mistletoe moments! ❤️ Tiny Pauses throughout the season where we stop long enough to really see each other.

Not long talks.
Not perfectly curated dates.
Just intentional connection that quietly says:

💚 You matter
💚 I still choose you
💚 I see you
💚 I’m here

Some moments will be sugar …soft compliments, gratitude pauses, a quiet hold by the glow of the tree, a prayer before bed.

Some moments will be spice…..a sprig hung over the bed, a slow kiss, playful flirtation, a little warmth that reminds us we’re not just teammates but lovers too.

Because marriage isn’t only strengthened by huge gestures, it flourishes in the gentle, repeated moments of closeness.

This season, let mistletoe prompt you to slow down, kiss, laugh, pray, flirt, breathe, and come close again.❤️🎄
