Matt's created a Christmas morning tradition that I love. We read the Christmas story together before we open any presents, to remind ourselves why we're celebrating in the first place. I especially love that Matt reads it from Oceana's Bible, so that she understands the story for herself.
I love traditions, especially ones that bring Jesus to the forefront of the Christmas celebration! Your kids will grow up remembering about the time when Daddy reads the Christmas story, while all the other kids think of ripping open all the presents! So neat!
ReplyDeleteWe do the same thing:) This year we read from AJ's Bible while snuggling in our big bed! It made for a great start to the morning! Love it.
