I love Christmas! I love
the way that people try to slow down and enjoy family more. I love how people choose to give to others
instead of keep things for themselves. I
love the wonder that is seen in the eyes of children as they see Christmas
lights or the Christmas tree light up and sparkle. I love the laughter that comes from
baking. I love the smiles that come from
traditions, such as new Christmas jammies and reading the Christmas Story on
Christmas Eve. I love how my children
love to give gifts as much as they love to get them and how they won’t open any
presents until we sing together as a family, Happy Birthday Jesus. In short, I love Christmas.
This year was bittersweet.
I wanted to wake up with a large tummy filled with a baby, but instead I
woke up to four joyous faces excited that it was Christmas morning. I also awoke to a wonderful husband who said
that I was his gift, his favorite Christmas present. He told me that a gift is something that you
could not fathom or imagine blessing you until you received it. Robert said that I was that gift! What an amazing day!
Time for Christmas Eve Traditions, first up…JAMMIES!!
It’s Christmas
Morning!!!! YAY
As we spent the day enjoying each other and opening presents, I
was reminded that the greatest gift is indeed the gift of my Savior! Without Christ I am nothing. What a great gift His life and more
importantly His death really are for all of us!
I am so thankful to be reminded of that this Christmas!
Thanks to Christ this is truly the most wonderful time of the
year!
