Ho Ho the Mistletoe!


It's that time of year again, a time of love and remembrance of Christ's birth. Also, a time of stress over money, schedules, decorating etc. It seems like the older I get the more aware of these stresses of Christmas I become. I have talked to people about the best way to approach Christmas with kids and have come to the conclusion as always that there is no right way. But, I don't think that it is my way to forget about Santa altogether. I think that using Santa in the right way as a symbol of giving and teaching your children the similarities between Santa and Christ not to be sac religious you need to read the book that my mother gave me a while back called I believe in Santa. I hope to try and teach my children that Christmas is about giving and receiving, but mostly about Christ. I have found that you can look around and find symbols of Christ all over the Christmas Season. I hope that we can all recognize these symbols in our lives and remember Christ this Christmas Season.
Love You All
