I love this time of year. There is always so much stress to please everyone. But there is so much joy that comes from it too. Even the most simple things bring me joy this time of year. Like a Christmas tree with lights. When it's snowing outside, I like to cuddle with a blanket and turn off all the lights other than the Christmas tree. And just enjoy it. It can be so fun to read Christmas stories to Lydia. Or rather, right now she is playing with her toy Nativity set. And though she doesn't completely understand, I hope that I can set an example and have her understand the true meaning. That as wonderful as giving and receiving gifts can and is. That that is not what Christmas is all about. They sure aren't kidding when they say that Christmas is 100 times better with kids. It's so much more fun.
If you are wondering what I believe the Christmas season means to me, below is a video attachment that can explain it hopefully a little more than I can.
I hope you enjoy it.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas. I hope your families are well and that you have safe travels.
