Christmas Message

Christmas Eve was a little more special this year. We met together as a family as usual. All of the cousins opened up their Christmas Eve pj's and dressed up to do the nativity scene as usual. All of these things are great and wonderful and we will continue to do them forever more, but as my Dad told us the Christmas story, he did it a little different this year. We all handed him our attention and listened as he told of not only the birth of Christ, but of his sacrifice also. It wasn't just a story compiled of facts and events. It was my Dad's testimony saturated with reverence and respect. His testimony is unshakable and strong. He is a man of integrity that has a personal relationship with Christ. I love my Dad, and because of everything he and my Mom have taught and shown me, I will have that same relationship. I will thank my Heavenly Father, face to face, someday for allowing me to be their daughter.
