I'm so grateful for this time of year. I'm equally grateful for the knowledge of just how special it is. It's not about getting or giving gifts, it's not about winter break, I have to say when I was a kid it was called Christmas break which is what it is and it irritates me that they changed it, anyway, it's not about the lights or any of the other fun stuff we do this time of year. It's a celebration of our Savior's birth. I was supposed to give a talk today but church got canceled due to weather, crazy! Anyway my talk was on focusing on Christ during this season. I thought we were doing pretty good but there are some things we could do better. I'm really excited about the FHE I found to help the family focus together. In case you are interested it's called O Come All Ye Faithful and it's on LDS.org. I hope that as we all go into this sometimes crazy holiday season that we all step back and remember the real reason for the season and focus on Christ and putting Christ back in Christmas. Instead of going to church today we are going to stay home and continue to watch BYU channel and rest and think about how blessed we are. Especially today to be inside and out of the horrendous wind and blowing snow outside!
