And all through the Love house we're finishing up wrapping, packing up cookies to be delivered and hoping to hit the mall for a photo with Santa. It is very easy to get caught up in the demands of the season and forget the reason we celebrate Christmas.
Tonight, we'll eat our traditional junk food dinner, sing Christmas songs on the karaoke and read the Christmas story from the New Testament. I am so grateful for the birth of the Savior and his atoning presence in my life. I am grateful that the celebration of his birth turns most people into happier, friendlier people at this time of year. I'm glad Christmas Eve is finally here so things will settle down, and I can take time to reflect with my family on the birth of the Savior and the importance of this birthday in our lives.
To all my friends and family near and far - Merry Christmas! You are in my heart and thoughts not just today, but always.
