Tom and I have been married for ten years and have two incredible children. Eight years ago this December, we were blessed with Grace Noelle. What a Christmas present! Grace is funny, witty, creative and feisty. Things are never boring when she is around. About a year and a half later, we welcomed our son, Sam, into the family. Sam is sweet, kind and determined. He is all boy and loves any and all sports. We are truly blessed.
I love Christmas, and I have no problem celebrating Christmas all year long. It is not unusual to hear Christmas music playing in our house when it is 100 degrees outside. I want my children to love Christmas too, but more importantly, I want them to see beyond themselves and the secular nature of this holiday. I want them to be marked by the birth of Christ. I am thankful for the birth of a perfect Savior who died in my place and who erases all of my sin and imperfection. This is truly a reason to celebrate.
