Our Christmas tree isn't a theme one. It's a hodge podge of ornaments Tim's made or we have collected through the years. I love being able to sit in my living room and enjoy looking at my Christmas tree every year. I sit and think about Christmas's past with all of it's joy that Scot and I had as we watched Tim's face light up as he opened his gifts. These days with his being 16 years old there's not as much excitement because it's hard to surprise a teenager with gifts when what they want is parts for a gaming computer...LOL! Stuff like that has to be thought through and carefully picked out with the advice of a computer gaming geek like our son who builds gaming computers for a living. We always want to make sure that Tim is making the best decision and getting more bang for our buck...LOL! So suffice it to say that my joy comes from looking at the ornaments on the tree, especially the ones Tim made, and remembering Christmas past and all the fun memories we've had over the years. Enjoying Christmas has a different meaning now and that's ok because there's always joy in sharing in the birth of our Savior Jesus and celebrating Him! He is the real reason for the season and we have never forgotten that! I pray you find lots of joy in this season as I do every year at this time. God Bless You All!
