I can hardly believe that Christmas is approaching so quickly!
One of my favorite things about celebrating the Christmas season as a mom is experiencing it through the eyes of my children.
Those eyes that are so filled with wonder!
Last year was the first year that Jenny, my youngest, really “got” the wonder of experiencing the Christmas season. She was thrilled over everything!
I think this year is going to be even more special and I can’t wait to celebrate the coming of our Lord and Savior with my family.
I hear many people complaining about the earliness of Christmas being celebrated. It seems as if the Christmas merchandise is brought out as soon as Halloween is over. And the same goes for the playing of Christmas music on the radio…earlier and earlier each year. I have complained about this myself before.
But, the more and more I think about it…I don’t see the reason for complaint.
I love Christmas!
I love celebrating Christ come to earth as a baby…for ME and YOU…to bring hope, peace, and salvation.
This is something that I want to celebrate always…not just for four weeks out of the year.
I don’t want to limit the celebration of Christmas to the month of December.
So…this year, I’m thinking the earlier the better!
Let’s sing Christmas songs, let’s make Christmas memories, let’s decorate our homes and above all else, let’s celebrate the birth of Christ and the salvation that his birth brought to a lost and dying world without hope.
This layout was created with a new Very Merry Christmas collection by Amy Jaz Designs. I love the color palette that she used…not the usually red and green of Christmas. It’s so soft and bright and festive!
Are you preparing your heart to celebrate and experience the wonder of the Christmas season?
