Merry Christmas

My son loves Christmas.

He loves the Christmas lights. He loves Christmas trees. He loves the decorations. He loves Santa. He loves the Christmas trains.

He loves the ringing of bells. He loves giving coins to the Salvation Army volunteers. (He even asked if they were ringing the bells just for him.)

He loves Christmas songs. He loves snowmen and snow globes.

He loves all those things. For him, Christmas does not equal presents. Christmas is wonderful and exciting, magical and beautiful.

And so is he.

What a wonderful spirit he has for
enjoying all the things that make
Christmas so special. You would not
expect a child to appreciate anything but knowing they were getting presents. You are truly a
parent who teaches her child well and appreciates all that he brings to your life.
