"There's this Christmas tradition I want to start," Morgana told Merlin.
"What is it?" Merlin replied. As a newly married couple, he was open to starting Christmas traditions just for them.
"On Christmas Eve, I'd like each of us to make a list of things to be thankful for, then on Christmas Day, we'll read them to each other. And as we have children," here she blushed, "I'd like them to participate too, when they get old enough."
"Okay, that sounds like something pretty enlightening to do."
Morgana grinned. "Studies show that cultivating a habit of gratitude boosts compassion and well-being in yourself."
"That sounds like a good enough reason for me. Let's do it."
"All right, but we can't forget."
"Morgana, Christmas Eve is tomorrow!" Merlin chuckled.
"Let's put it on our calendars. I never forget to check mine every day."
"Good idea again, love."
"I know. Now here's another one." She whispered her idea into his ear, and he grinned. It may even be a new tradition, he thought as she led the way to their bedroom.
