The Sweetest Thing!



My little girl, who is three, had a play date the other afternoon with a close friend of hers. They were happily cooking and chatting in the play kitchen upstairs. Suddenly they both marched down stairs, obviously on a mission, birthday cake in hand! They stopped in front of the Christmas tree and began debating if they could go ahead and sing Happy Birthday to Baby Jesus. " It's too soon ,"my daughter said, "it's not Christmas yet. " I stepped in and encouraged them that everyday is a wonderful day to sing Happy Birthday to Jesus because we are thankful for Him each day of our lives! So, we all sang Happy Birthday to Jesus! What a blessing these sweet little girls are to my soul!
Luke 2:11
"Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord."
The best Christmas present we will ever receive is from God..... The gift of salvation through Jesus Christ.
