Here I sit in the middle of the night thinking about what to write. Since it's Christmas eve, I think I'll talk about the wonder of the holidays.
My parents met 21 years ago this night, and have been married for 16 years, so far. For us, tonight is the night where you can't keep your kids at bay. For them, it is the eve of their Christmas miracle!
What is a Christmas miracle? And why are miracles communly connected with a season like Christmas? Any Christian would tell you it's the birth of Christ that we must celebrate. All children would say "A fat man in a flying sleigh with 8 tiny reighndear + Rudolph comes and leaves you presents and eats the milk and cookies you leave out for him". Perhaps it is both. We know it is both in our hearts. But behind both these well known holiday miracles, the real truth is, we are living on this great earth with our happy family and this is a chance to celebrate one another. I think that's all something we can share on Christmas day in the morning.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I must wait by the fire place for Santa Claus! He always comes at 12:21pm central time ;))
