The Simple Things

As we get closer to Sunday, our first family night of the 2012 Christmas season, we start to focus on the simple things.  Christmas doesn't have to be complicated or difficult.  A few years ago, it occurred to me that setting the nativity scene out before any other Christmas decorations helped my family to be more grounded and to visualize the important aspects of the season.  This soon became a tradition and an important part of our first Family Night.  Just take a moment with your husband and kids and set the tone for the season this Sunday.
