2009 Christmas Card...BLOG style



Time got away from me this year. I did make my Christmas card and even labeled my envelopes, but I didn't get them printed and out in time :( (Thank goodness for BLOGS!)

I have been so engulfed by the Christmas Spirit this year. It is amazing when I look around and see all the wonderful things happening in the world. There is not another time of year when strangers help strangers, and families celebrate families, and love is expressed more than during the Christmas season. As Asher gets older, yes I absolutely enjoy Santa Claus and all the excitement that brings to our house, but I also equally enjoy teaching Asher, Bensen and Lily about the Savior. And that because of him and his most precious gift to us, his own life, we can return to live with our families again, and with our Father in Heaven. WOW!! Isn't that a WOW!!! I know that I can live with my family forever! And I know that my faith in the Gospel and in my Savior has brought me to such a special place in my life, and that this is all possible because of that Holy Night that Jesus was born to Mary in a lowly stable in Judea, and the life that he led.

I have so many things to celebrate this Holiday Season. XOXO to all my family and friends...I wish I could see you all more. Enjoy your Christmas and don't forget to sit back and remember that which is important and special to you and your family.

Loves,
Jill
