The Joy of Giving and Receiving

We tried really hard this first holiday season to help the kids understand the real reason we celebrate Christmas.  They understood that we were celebrating Jesus's birth, and we read the Christmas story many times throughtout December.  They learned that we give gifts to each other, out of the love we have for one another, just like the three wise men gave to Baby Jesus that special night. 

After opening up the gifts from Santa, the kids enjoyed opening up gifts from us, Grandma and Grandpa, and other family and friends.  We had a very realaxing day and really enjoyed each other.
