Loving This Time of Year




This has been an amazing Christmas season. Lilly and Owen can hardly contain the butterflies with all the different activities, events and movies. We have had a crazy month running from here to there and back again but have enjoyed all our time as a family. This next week will bring more fun. Gary and I both have some time off and plan on taking the kids to the North Pole, baking cookies, wrapping presents, tons of Christmas movies and church caroling. We are also excited about sharing the Candle Light service together and seeing the kids take communion for the first time on Christmas Eve. As a mother I could not be more excited watching my babies with twinkles in their eyes, I had a proud mom moment in Wal-Mart no less when I asked Lilly to occupy Owen who was ready to leave. I asked her to tell him a story. She started by saying Christmas is Jesus birthday and he loved us so much he lets us all have presents on His day! And then she asked him where Jesus was and Owen in his obnoxious way lifted his shirt and pointed to his little chest. And Lilly in her obnoxious loud little Lilly mommy voice said good job buggy Jesus is in your heart! And indeed He is.
