This will not be our typical Christmas Card where I brag about my wonderful children and recap their year. I will do a recap of our year closer to New Years.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
After a week getting traditions ready, but doing my best not to stress,but just enjoy,I decided to asked my children what they thought the meaning of Christmas is.
I noticed a common thread that made me tear up.
"Christmas meens to me alot. Its not about the toys, its about the thought that counts and sellabrating Jesuss's birth and peace."-Emma 9
"Christmas is about family and the birth of the Savior." Hannah 14
"Chrismas meens we tak time to giv odder peeple prizs and gifs beecuz Geez (Jesus)is a gift."- Andrew 6
"I like Santa. He is Jesus' Helper. We have a Christmas tree with lights." Ben 3
Whether you are lighting a Menorah or showing gratitude for the birth of our Redeemer. The world is taking time to thank their God for a miraculous gift. The holidays show us that there is indeed a God and He loves us enough to leave the light burning in the Temple and the birth of His Son.
"Christmas means celebrating the birth of my Savior,Jesus Christ, through beautiful lights and singing Christmas Carols." Sarah 16
May we take a moment this season to thank God for His bounteous love.
Merry Christmas.
Love,
Our Family
