It has been fun to see Emily engage in the festivities of Christmas. She understands more of what Christmas is all about. Nelson and I tried to help keep the spirit of Christ in Christmas with her. We talked about the meaning of Christmas often and shared thoughts about Christ's birth during FHE. Emily loves celebrating birthdays, so we emphasized Christmas as Jesus' birthday. We had fun making a present for Jesus one FHE. The girls drew pictures about things they could do to give to Jesus: sharing and playing nicely. I loved watching them pretend with the present later that week. This picture captures sweet Emily carrying the present for Jesus with the nativity baby Jesus inside. From this FHE activity, Emily also got into the fun of drawing. These two pictures are her originals. She is becoming such a smart, talented little girl.
This is a picture of our house, with our family in front, and flowers at the bottom.
