This time of year it seems everyone loses sight of the true meaning of christmas. With all the hustle and bustle, comings and goings, parties, and all the such, its easy to forget. Easy to fotget the real meaning is to get ME presents. Yes, I said for everyone to get ME something!
Ok seriously, I was just kidding, But you are welcome to get me stuff! We need to remmeber that this s the time we celebrate Christ's birth. And the miracle of his birth and life. Ok so not everyone is Christian, or celebrates christmas, but even so this time of year is a time of goodwill. I have not heard of any religon where goodwill is not taught. This is a time of year where we tend to help the helpless more, where we spend time with those we love.
So I challenge us all to remember this as we go in deeper into the holiday season. Christmas is only a week away, fastly approaching, and it will be really easy to lose sight of the truth.
So tell those you love you love them. Remember in your heart those less fortuante, and thank God and Christ (or if not Christian, your God) for all you have.
Merry Christmas all!

It's so good of you to remind us all just when we're getting down to the grind and starting to stress about what gifts we haven't gotten, what we still need to wrap, how much more it will cost...
We definately need that little reminder to take the time to take a deep breath, remember our families and how much we love them. Remember our Savior and how much we owe him and what this holiday is meant to celebrate.
Merry Christmas to you! James, Dawn & Carly
I'm really excited to meet you this summer, Dawn - & Carly too!
