December 5th to 6th we have a visitor at our house: St. Nicolas. He fills the kids' shoes with "goodies." Madison thought for sure it would be ALL candy, but they got gum and playdough and elf hats. It was fun to see them so excited and it has been so rewarding talking about Christmas the whole month of December. We also do what is called Advent the four Sundays before Christmas where we read in Luke about Christ's birth. It is nice to have family time and to be able to think about and concentrate on the important side of Christmas. I have to say, I am sad about not seeing family this year, but it SO nice not to have to travel. We watch the Mormom Tabernacle Christmas concerts and read Christmas stories, watch Christmas movies and count down the days to Christmas with a chain. Each day we pick a chain and do a service. I love Christmas. Our house has such a lovely feeling to it. Merry Christmas everyone!
