This year for Christmas we spent less. We shopped less. We made less preparations. We sent no Christmas cards. We got caught up in the franticness less. Even in the busyness of travel, we sat and visited with friends and family more. We listened more. We talked more. I got beat at spades again. We enjoyed that precious time with family and friends more. We had the best Christmas ever. I hope you did.

WHAT MAKES A GOOD CHRISTMAS?
Maybe we should measure a successful holiday season by diminishing divorce, suicide, and child abuse rates. Maybe then we wouldn’t need to band-aid our loneliness with more debt. I AM happy you see that YOU get the real meaning of Christmas. I think Christmas is Christmas cookies, Grand children pictured in footie pajamas, hot cocoa, a fire, carols playing in the background… nobody fighting…that’s what I’m talkin’ about.
No big credit card debt sounds good to me too.
And knowing that Christ was born and died to give us the greatest gift one can give another. Hope and salvation through HIM.
Love, The Freeman's
