Happy Birthday, Jesus!

We wanted to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and take a minute to remember the Reason for the Season!

This sign we put out in our yard when we put our lights and bells and bows. Grace loves reading it every time she walks by it which has made it extra special this year.

Since we have been talking about Christmas being Jesus’ birthday, Grace asked if Jesus was going to have a cake for his birthday. I had to smile and agree that we could make a cake to celebrate his birthday. I let the kids decorate the cake, can you tell?

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas day with your family and loved ones in your life.

Wordless Wednesday: Reason for the Season

December 7, 2011 By 19 Comments

The kids have a nativity set that they love to play with and throw the pieces around the living room. We try to accept this as this the ONE of many nativity sets we have they can touch and play with and not harm. The other day, they decided to set it all up instead of pieces everywhere.

I think they got it right. Maybe we should set up all of our nativity sets like this to remember the true Reason for the Season!

Let us know where your Wordless Wednesday post is so we can come leave a comment!
