Christmas has come and gone!

Christmas has come and gone and I haven't updated my blog in a long time. We tried hard to keep our family focused on the real reason we celebrate. Yet our kids still are looking for more. They want more presents and more presents. Both kids got quite large gifts too. Aaron got a new guitar and Lillian got a nintendo DS. They. Were the only gifts they got because of the cost. Still they want more. How so we refocus on Christ. How do we help them remember that Without Christ there would be no reason to celebrate. If Christ had never born there would be no celebration. It is hard to keep that in focus when every where you look it's buy this buy that give me this give me that. No mentionof Christ. It's all about Santa and presents. I actuually had a co worker who was quite upset when I told her we didn't do Santa s At our house. So maybe next year we will work harder to keep more focused in the real reason we celebrate
