Merry Christmas

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. We are very excited in this house for Christmas day. Of course, the kids are ready to open the presents that are under the tree. But they are also excited because it is celebrating the birth of Christ. We have been doing a lot of activities over the last month relating to Jesus and Christmas. They have really been enjoying it this month. We have been doing a tradition that started when I was a little girl. The kids have been opening one small stocking stuffer since the 20th. We do it for five days before Christmas. It really helps to alleviate the excitement a little bit. Now I just hear for about 20 minutes in the morning "when do we get to open our present" rather than listening to it all day long for several days.

We wish everyone a very happy and wonderful Christmas.
