Christmas is such a wonderful time of year!!!
This year is different....as every year is a bit different...even though we have 'traditions' we try to stick with, every year, has it's changes. We know one thing NEVER changes...we are celebrating our Savior's birth. Oh praise the Lord.
This year some of the changes in the Brewer house are.....my folks are living in Arizona and this will be the first year without them. We will miss them terribly.... but, they have sent the all-time favorite candy that my mom makes, and they will be sending the family calendar...so we are keeping some traditions even from afar.
Lashae has a boyfriend and Kole has a girlfriend, and we need to consider everybody's traditions....I'm trying to be flexible and SHARE because I know they are doing the same and I appreciate it soooo much.
We have a little girl that is ours in our heart and she is not home with us yet, she is still in Ug*nda, so we have a stocking and a few gifts that won't be opened until she gets here. We are praying that it is soon.
This will be, more than likely, the last year in this house celebrating Christmas. We will have some big changes in the coming year! We are excited for whatever the Lord has in store for us, and we are just enjoying each day and tradition and memory that we have for this year.
We are glad for change, it makes life interesting and exciting, and we are glad for traditions and some things that NEVER change. I'm so glad that no matter what our traditions are or no matter what the future holds....we know WHO HOLDS THE FUTURE!!!!
Jesus Christ will always be the reason we celebrate Christmas, and He NEVER changes!
Have a Wonderful Christmas and embrace change and tradition! Both are blessings.

He holds the future, I am looking forward with you to see what the Lord has in store for you guys this next year. God is good, and as I sit here and eat a piece of divinity I am thinking....do you want to go for a run Sister?
Have a good day! Love, Your #1
I love that you can look forward to the future with such a positive attitude, knowing that it's in His hands. So excited for your future with Esther, and hers with you. Isn't following Jesus an amazing way to live!
