Santa also brought Atreyu some new super heroes which he seemed almost more excited for than the Ninja Turtles and Cambria got some new earrings. I had just clipped my nails the day before and I wasn't much help with earrings so Daddy helped her and she loved them. It was pretty sweet watching Jesse help her with such a girly task.
Christmas is definitely my favorite holiday. I love all the anticipation the whole month long and I love that people seem to focus more on Christ during the month and try to serve others more than usual. I want to teach my kids the importance of service. We delivered some plates of goodies to different people this year and I'm hoping that's a good, small start to teaching them about service. I love that family gets together at Christmas time and I love that it's not about the gifts you receive but the people you are with. I am so thankful for my Savior, for His humble birth, the life he led, the example he set and the sacrifice he made for each of us. I am thankful we are able to remember Him at Christmas and I hope that I will always remember and strive to teach my children the true meaning of Christmas.
