Merry Christmas!
It's that time again. the time of year that everyone is happy and it fills you with warmth inside. time for the manger scenes to appear outside and the Christmas lights light up indoors and outdoors. I, for one, have been loving the change of seasons and the happiness that's being spread everywhere.
don't get me wrong, i love summer. and fall...and spring...i actually love all the seasons. they're all beautiful and unique in their own dear little way. but December has something special...it's the month when we celebrate the birth of our Savior! i like to think of it as one of the happiest months of the year, yes, even happier than August. my birth month. although i like to tell my month that August is one of the most important months ever. because it brought me to them. *giggle* and i guess that is pretty important. but nothing beats December when the whole world seems to be happy.
It makes me sad that many people want to take the Christ out of Christmas and lead their kids to believe that Christmas is about Santa and his Reindeer.
Everyone has a right to know what Christmas is really about.
It's about Christ, about Family, about Friends. and about making people happy by sharing the Christmas spirit.
So, if you get a chance. sit down and tell a child about the real meaning of Christmas. or do something extra special for a stranger. it may just be a little thing. but sometimes little things turn out to be the biggest things. and most of all. Have yourself a Holly Jolly Christmas!
