Our children were home on Christmas Eve and we went to a beautiful candlelight service. Cold and still and starry night. Jesus came as an infant to begin His life on earth. He grew and matured and He showed us how to live a life for others. But He gave His life for us so we would be right with God. What a Saviour!
On Christmas morning, we opened presents and ate gooey French toast and breakfast casserole. Dylan got a rocking chair that we had had refinished. Mary got this child's chair for Christmas when she was 3 years old! 60 years ago. Dylan sat so comfortably and tired to figure out how to make it rock. Derek got an Ipad, Jack a camelback for carrying water when he hikes in Arizona and Mary got yoga pants and a mat - her new avocation.
