Christmas Time!

It's time to dig out the tree and the decorations...To psych myself up and make it magical for my kids. Kids are the best part of Christmas, they are the innocence that bring out the purity of the holiday. I love looking at the excitement in my kids eyes when they see the lights on the houses or when we decorate the tree. It makes it worth the noise and chaos of Christmas morning when they open their presents and there is paper and toys everywhere. Every year I try to emphasize the Savior's birth as the reason for our celebration and I hope they internalize the sacred nature of the holiday and remember the real reason for our celebration.
