Christmas

Today we celebrated Christmas and I couldn’t help but think about how much Christmas has changed over the years.  We had a great day over at my sister-in-laws, and then we ended up going into DC to see the Christmas Trees.  Throughout the day the topic of how Christmas really is all about Jesus and it really is for children seemed so clear.  I felt so blessed to be with family and friends.  I felt so blessed to have been able to make it to midnight mass last night.  This year was so special for so many reasons, but I think primarily it was special because it wasn’t about the gifts.  There was no stress over what to get anybody.  There was no stress over spending too much money.  Everything just seemed so perfect this year because the focus was on the birth of Jesus and on the family.
