there are so many blessings that come with having children, and christmas is one of them. i have loved christmas since a childhood, but since having my own children i love it even more {if that is possible}. i love talking about baby jesus and the nativity story. i love singing jingle bells and listening to christmas music all the time. i love all the parties. i love visiting santa and writing him a letter. i love buying and wrapping gifts and trying to teach "it is better to give than receive" to my children. i love family gatherings with all the yummy food and hugs. i love dressing up my kids in their adorable "christmas clothes" and taking their pictures. i love looking at christmas lights. i love hearing children sing "away in the manger." and the list goes on and on, but this year on the top of my "favorites" list is...
what joy these two bring to my life! and what is absolutely amazing to me is that it does not even compare the the joy that jesus brings by being my savior,"wonderful counselor, mighty god, everlasting father, prince of peace." {Isaiah 9:6} thank you jesus!
