This is just a taste of the Christmas cheer around our house. Christmas with little children is so much fun! This is the first year that we will be at our house on Christmas morning. I am getting really excited! It's really the first year that Chloe understands the holiday season and all the things that go with it. As the excitement and anticipation within me increase, I am finding that my sense of responsibility also increases. I find myself pondering my role as a parent, and wondering if I'm taking advantage of all of the opportunites that the Christmas season affords to teach my children about Jesus.....the real reason for the season. Am I making room for all of the magical moments of Christmas......or am I letting our schedule rule my time? I'm praying that in the next couple of weeks, I will be creative and consistent in the ways that I share the joy of Christmas in our home. I want my family to welcome 2010 with attitudes of gratitude and hearts full of joy as we reflect on all that Christ has done for us!
