That Time of Year


Eggnog, decorations, Christmas music, fires, 30 degree weather, blankets ( or snuggies :) and last but NOT least...HOME ALONE!! It's finally "that" time of year. And this year, Camille is almost three so we're having fun doing it all together. Although, she did think Mommy was a little batty when I freaked out because they're finally playing Christmas music on the radio. Having a child her age is so much fun because when they experience it for the fist time, it's like you're reliving your childhood all over again. I introduced her to "Home Alone" the other night (it's a Christmas family tradition) and I am proud to say, she loved it. And while I am ALL for going ALL out at Christmas, my mother reminded me the other night what the special holiday season is really all about. I think it makes God happy to see everyone enjoy the season: lights, snowmen, sugar cookies, presents...but I think it also makes Him sad to see everyone forgetting what Christmas is all about. So, let's enjoy everything this following month has to offer but don't forget to take a moment every now and then and thank our Lord for sending His son, so many years ago.
