This is one of my favorite times of year! First and foremost we are so grateful for our Savior who's birth we are celebrating right now. I know my life would be pretty empty and lonely without the knowledge that I have of his birth, death, and resurrection.
I am also grateful for what we do have. This year our ward did an angel tree. It was very humbling to see that all that some of the kids wanted for Christmas were simple things...like some nailpolish...or the game of "Life".
I also could not be more thankful for a baby to share the Christmas holiday with. It's been so fun this year to spend time with her and eating up her eating up everything about this season. Even though she is small, she definitley notices the beautiful lights and sounds of Christmas...and I'm sure feels of the wonderful spirit that goes along with it.
