The True Meaning of Christmas

If you are struggling to feel the true Spirit of Christmas… I challenge you to watch this video and not feel the emotion of Mary as she holds the Son of God in her arms.  I cannot imagine the overwhelming magnitude of being called to be the earthly parents of the Savior of the World.  

"Christmas is about Love"

 I am so thankful for the gift of the Savior Jesus Christ and His life, and the gift He is in my life

                                                 Merry Christmas

Angel Wings...

These Angel Wings have become a very special Christmas tradition

at our house the last several years

~

I tried to think of something we could do

as a family to have Natalie be a part

of our Christmas Day celebrating

~

These Angel Wings are hidden

every Christmas season somewhere in the house

~

On Christmas Day...whomever finds them

recieves a small special gift....

the gift has to remind us of Natalie

~

The person that finds them

buys the gift the next year

and has the honor of hiding the Angel Wings

It's a Christmas tradition

that I look forward to every year

because...

I happen to know a Angel

that looks forward to it

as much as we do

~

Natalie means Christmas...

Natalie \n(a)-ta-lie\ as a girl's name is pronounced NAT-a-lee. It is of Latin origin, andthe meaning of Natalie is "birthday". Refers to the birthday of Christ, or Christmas. French form ofNatalya. Therewas a fourth-century Saint Natalia. The "h" is silent in the French form Nathalie; some American variants (like Nathalee) are phonetically spelled to retain the "h" sound.

I've alway's known that Natalie's name meant

"Christmas"

I love this time of year

when we celebrate the

birthday of Christ

Because of Him

we will be with

Natalie again

He gave the world

the best

gift

ever received

With His birth

He brought

joy

hope

peace..

all things I feel

every time I think of

Natalie...which means

"Christmas"

and that..just makes me smile

Merry Christmas...Everyone!

"There is always something in life to be thankful for. I will honour Christmas in my heart and try to keep it all year round. It transforms us. This is the season of Merry Christmases, friendships, cheerful recollections and affection. God bless every Christmas! ~ Charles Dickens
