8 years ago today, we were singing at our church's Christmas Eve service. They were showing a beautiful video about Jesus' birth and at the end, the narrator said "...and a child is born". Just then, my husband's phone buzzed (it was muted). It was our son telling us that we had a brand new grandson! Happy Birthday, Henry!
Today is a busy day-I'll be doing some last minute baking and then we'll be getting ready to head to church for rehearsal and then singing in our Christmas Eve Candlelight service. It's one of my favorite services and usually very well attended.
We are gradually inching our way back above the freezing mark today. It was down in the single digits here Thursday with wind chills well below zero. A little snow, but dry and powdery so it didn't stay around. After Christmas, we'll be heading to our home town for my Mother-in-law's memorial. We'll all be gathering to remember her wonderful life, share a meal, tell stories and visit. We always spent Christmas at my in-laws' home when our kids were little-all of my husband's siblings and their young children. It was a wonderful time.
If you're having bad weather today, please stay safe and stay warm! Happy Christmas Eve!
