Today and tomorrow are special to say the least.  Not only do Joe and I get to be incredibly thankful for Jesus being born on earth, but we get to explain over and over and over again what this day means to our boys.  We get to enjoy our amazing family whom He has blessed us with and given us the grace to be responsible for.  Today, just like other days throughout the year we get to show our boys how to witness to those around us, how to be patient and kind, sing loud in church, raise our hands, have total joy…   For today and tomorrow I will soak up His precious birth and life and HOPE and pray that I can remember what this is like EVERY day throughout the year to come and try to live that out.  AND…be so thankful for His forgiveness when I mess it all up again.

Merry Christmas, from Texas, y’all!  Where we are wearing shorts & t.shirts to open our presents in!
