I love Christmas. I love driving past the lights on people's houses, I love the smells of pine trees and cinnamon, I love the cookies, I love singing carols by candlelight. I love the idea that my Savior somehow became a baby. That idea is especially interesting this year, now that I have my own baby.
I used to really love getting presents. Don't get me wrong, I still like presents, but these days the excitement of presents pales in comparison to the excitement of getting to see my family. Now that my siblings live a minimum of 500 miles away from me, I'm glad for Christmas for the simple reason that it's an excuse for all of us to get together.
So to Kenna, Marty, Eric, Elizabeth, Kellen, Jenny, Jeff, and my sweet nieces, Cady and Natalie, I love you and I can't wait to see you!
