Yesterday, we celebrated our Lord God's birth. Having children has helped me realize that although we love them and want to mould them, they are unique and have a plan. How did the Theotokos feel when her Son was crucified and resurrected? I'm a mix of emotions, all the time....
We gave and received....
Homemade giant bath bombs (from my sister in Canada). Chocolate for my mom (from my other sister in Oregon) which she generously shared with us!
Olivia's arm extended, trying to get Paul in, but he was busy playing.
P.S. Thank you to Melinda who has a gift for bringing people together.

This looks like such a warm, loving celebration. I remember also noticing that I viewed Christmas differently after I became a mama.
This is so sweet! I love seeing the photos of your celebration.
Christ is Born!!
Glad to be back on your blog! I see you have a link to my old farm blog still on your list! :)
Merry Christmas! It’s a blessing to be near family, something I do not take for granted since we’ve spent most of our adult life far away from them.
Merry Christmas and a blessed Nativity to you. I feel the same way, »a mix of emotions all the time » and my kiddos are grown. Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures and experiences.
