family traditions

 i recently read a book by emily freeman about inviting christ into your christmas
more through doing family traditions throughout the holiday season
we've decided to jump on the idea
and i am SOOO excited about it!!
even though my kids are young and they may not
fully realize it all
i know i am learning more, at least
and sometimes that is what happens right
we plan for something to impact someone else's life
and we realize along the way what an impact it made on our life

 this night we talked about mary and how she gave birth to the son of God
we talked about that night and the thoughts that were going through her head
how much love she had for her new baby
and the overwhelming responsibility it must have been to raise the son of God
then we decorated heart shaped sugar cookies
