Christmas and Miracles

For Christmas this year, my family came here to Bern and we all had Christmas with Jesse's parents. We had a great time with only one downside. On Christmas Eve, we all sat down to dinner and during the prayer, Wyatt fell backwards off his stool, hit his head, passed out and stopped breathing. We were all so scared. I am so thankful for Jesse and his medical training. He worked with Wyatt and stayed pretty calm most of the time and after about 2 minutes (that is, 2 incredibly long minutes)Wyatt started breathing again. The ambulance came and took him to the hospital where he had a CT scan done and everything looked alright. We are all so grateful that it didn't turn out worse and I know our Heavenly Father was watching over Wyatt that night. Incidents like this remind you how precious life is and just how much you really love your family.

Thank goodness that was the only drama we had and on Christmas morning, Wyatt was back to his normal self. We got up and went to church and then up to Grandma and Grandpa's for Santa and gifts. Atreyu was so excited about his tractor. I really don't think we could have gotten a better gift for him.




We then ate breakfast and opened all our gifts. I really didn't think Atreyu would be too into opening them but he had a blast and opened them as quickly as he could. It was so much fun watching him and the other kids open their gifts and be filled with so much excitement. It reminded me of when I was little and how exciting Christmas was then.







Christmas is definitely my favorite holiday. We always spend time with family which is one of the greatest gifts we have in life. And also, we are able to celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. I know that His life and death were for us and I am so thankful that we all have a big brother who loves us so much.
