What a beautiful moment. Knowing that 2000-some years ago, a child was born that would save us all. It's only this year that I'm starting to understand the awesomeness of it all.
Tony tripped out this morning. He'll be gone through Christmas, so yesterday morning we let Cody demolish all of his gifts. He had a blast ripping through the paper & looking at everything. When he'd open a package that contained clothes, he'd hand them to me & move on. It was so cute & so like a little boy.
Tomorrow, we will be going to the MAF (Missile Alert Facility) to have Christmas dinner with Tony. It's not ideal, but at least we will be together as a family for a few short hours.
Last night at church was beautiful. The band did a version of 'Little Drummer Boy' that blew me away, & I had goosebumps to prove it. Knowing what God did for us and how it changed everything amazes me. To do something so selfless & wonderful tells me that there's good in the world.
Whenever I think about how crappy things can get, I hope that I can learn to reflect & realize that I am so truly blessed, because the Father has given me all I'll ever need.
Merry Christmas, everyone. I hope you have a beautiful day & season- and know that Jesus is with you.
Merry Christmas!
