Merry Christmas!!


Christmas is right around the corner, and I'm so excited!!! The Christmas Carols and the yummy smells of sweet Christmas treats.....uh I just love it~! The constant reminder of what our Savior did and continuely does for each and everyone of us. My holiday wish this year is to teach my children the true meaning of Chirstmas, and to not get so caught up in the worldy "fun-yet tempting" things of this world. I've tried focusing on gifts that I can make for ones that I love rather than the stress of not having enough to buy everyone wonderful gifts. It has been great, the feeling I get in return when I hand someone a gift that I made, is awesome!! It helps the spirit of christmas stay where it ought to stay, with the intent of loving and caring for your friends and having that be enough. I hope that we all can keep and eternal perspective this Christmas and remember what truely counts... I love you all and hope that you have a wonderful Holiday Season!!

That is a beautiful picture! Isn't it amazing how Christmas can be construed to mean something totally different? What I wonder is how do you teach your kids?
