Tis The Season

Tomorrow is Christmas Day! And I have to say that having children in our home tends to keep things around here magical and exciting.....I love it!!!

So today is TOP TEN Christmas.

1. I love Christmas Carols...love, love, love!  I feel that some of the most beautiful songs written about our Lord are Christmas songs and relegated to December singing only....What a shame...I feel that it is always appropriate to sing about the coming of our Lord.
2. I love Christmas lights....they just make me smile.
3. I love that I have a new nephew, Jude Liam Cutler that was born Thursday. He is adorable and healthy and doing great! My brother, Amick, and sister in law Christy have been through so much these past few years and it floods my heart with gratitude and joy to see them with their sweet little boy. Their family of 4 will get to spend the day together just soaking in the love and holding the fulfillment of their love and promise. You can't beat that!!!
4. I love my family so much!!! And it is rough this year being separated.....missing my sister and her family, my brother and his family, my mom, and my dad. So thankful that it is not a forever thing...just a for now thing.
5. I love that I will be spending this week with my hubby and our two boys. We are creating our own traditions and loving it!!! What a special time!!
6. Did I mention that I love Christmas music??
7. I love that even though a portion of our country try to deny the real reason for this blessed season, we are still free to tell the story of Christmas, worship Him in our churches and in our homes, that people still put up Merry Christmas signs (regardless of who it might offend), that we go caroling, that many stores and businesses refuse to be politically correct and continue to call Christmas what it is......Christmas, a day all about Jesus Christ! 
8. I love that God loved us enough to send His Son to earth to live as a man just so we would have a future and a hope in Jesus Christ. It blows my mind!!
9. I love the look on my boys faces as we talk about Christmas and what it really means. They get it! What a blessing!
10. And I love that last night our boys told us that they wanted to send one of their toys/presents to someone else that might not get one. My heart overflows!!!!

We wish you and yours a blessed and wonderful CHRISTMAS season!!!
