Excitment!

This sign was taped to our guest room door by Sydney! I laughed and then remembered back to when our own kids were young and Christmas was so exciting. Lots of secrets and whispering went on. Every year on Christmas morning we were awakened at 6:00 AM by 5 kids singing,"We Wish You A Merry Christmas!" Actually their whispering and shhhhing was what woke us up! It was a wonderful tradition made up by our own kids. Even Grandma drove out to our house early so she wouldn't miss the excitement of opening gifts. One year we were awakened about 3:00 AM by one lone little boy singing at the top of his lungs, "We Wish You A Merry Christmas!" He just couldn't wait! I convinced him he needed to go back to bed and to sleep until the rest got up to sing with him! Thank you Lord for good family times and for kids and grand kids! Most of all, thank you for Jesus! Jesus is the reason for the season!
