Christmas

With all the crazy running around we do day to day its no surprise that Christmas is 7 days away! My goal is to bring Christ back into CHRISTmas for all of the 7 days ahead in an effort to redirect our children s focus to the Lord. We have much to be grateful for and our Savior's birth is top on our list.

The Holiday Season

I LOVE the HOLIDAY SEASON! Most especially CHRISTMAS!!!! This year is a tight one for everyone economically especially our family. But I think it will allow us to focus more on the most important aspect of Christmas which is the birth of our Savior. During a Relief Society activity last month we received stories about Christmas. One story for each day leading up till that day. So I've been reading one a night to the boys before bed by a little Christmas tree(also made on one of our enrichment nights) and it really helps refocus us away from all the commercialism of the season. I don't know what Michael is getting me this year but honestly, by trying to remain centered on the birth of Christ, what ever it is will be great cause I won't be concerned so much with the "what will I gets of this holiday" as much as the "what can I gives"
