My kids are enjoying the Christmas season so much. Between our visit to Great Wolf Lodge 2 weeks ago, their brand new Nintendo 3DS systems, and visiting with all of our sweet family members, there is SO much going on that brings joy to their face!
I asked them what Christmas means to them. Here is what they drew (and said):

| Michael says, “Christmas means presents and family. It also means COOKIES!” |

| Grace says, “Christmas means presents and a tree!” |
Obviously my children are fans of presents… I questioned them some more about what Christmas means to them. We have been reading up on many cultures and how they celebrate Christmas, so I figured they could come up with something better than that!!
I asked the kids exactly what we’re trying to remember and why people around the world celebrate on December 25th. FINALLY, my daughter and oldest son told me that it was to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Aha!
Merry Christmas, from our family to yours. 🙂
