Is there anything better than a Christmas season with two little ones?
*The joy of decorating the tree...
...during our annual tradition with Grandma and Grandpa.
*The delight of seeing Santa Claus (with no line to wait in!). Jon asked for trains (of course) and Lauren said, "Surprise me," until she finally confessed that she wanted an American Girl doll.
Followed by the annual ride on the carousel--which seems to go faster than I remembered. :)
*The excitement of getting all dolled up for a date with my man--even if it is to go to his annual work party.
*The pure gratefulness I feel when surrounded by our church family.
*The sugar high that follows when you eat more sprinkles than you put on the cookies.
Thank you, God, for Christmas, and for allowing us to celebrate the birth of your Son in so many small but meaningful ways.
