We love Christmas!
So here's a little of what we've been up to...getting more excited about Christmas every day. Last Sunday night Trey was in his second Christmas production at church (last year he played baby Jesus). My fears of him being uncooperative were totally unfounded, as he stayed with me and rang his little bell with all his might. It was precious!
We've had our tree up for a while now, but Trey has finally gotten interested in the ornaments. We hung his and our unbreakable ones near the bottom, so the few he has yanked off and thrown across the room are OK. It's hard to tell him not to play with something that has Elmo on it.
Otherwise there has just been a lot of playing with Mama and Daddy. As of Friday, both of us are off from work for two whole weeks. We are so looking forward to having time to relax together.
It is so easy to forget the true meaning of Christmas, getting caught up in schedules, events, shopping, decorating, wrapping. We put so much into celebrating that we lose track of the reason we are celebrating. The Lord Jesus Christ was the greatest, most unexpected, unique, most undeserved gift ever given to humanity. May we never take it for granted or lose sight of its magnitude in our lives. Read this, a Christmas message from last year written by Beth Moore. It's long, but it's worth it.
