I messed up one of the types of cookies which is nothing new.
I realized that morning that I didn't even have an idea in my head about what we were going to do as far as a program. Our programs are low key at best but I had not even thought about it.
Everyone rose to the occasion and participated in the program.
I set a festive-ish table. Not my best effort.
We ate and then Braeden played the piano.
Braeden put on a sport coat because he likes to dress up. Mark does too.
Mark had more of a pajama clad shepherd vibe going on. What would I do for entertainment if I didn't have such weird kids? It would be a dreary world.
Mark showed us a video on the laptop about Christmas which was nice.
Emma played the piano. Well. I told her I wanted her to sing too so she and Braeden sang their funny version of Baby It's Cold Outside. He sings, "You really can't stay."
She answers, "But Baby, it's cold outside."
I like it.
Grandma Geri did a little presentation with M & Ms. Anytime you involve M & Ms, it's a winner.
I read, A Wish for Wings that Work, a perennial favorite.
Adam did his contribution last. It's reading the story of Christ's birth, both from the Book of Mormon and Bible, with Silent Night playing in the background. It's beautiful.
Finally everything felt right. Christmas washed over me.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.It was the best news ever given. I felt the light of season that represents the Light of the World.
Joy to the world.
