It's fun to see you put down thoughts and ideas that we have talked about (and new ones) for all to see and be inspired by! On this post... one tradition we have started in our family to simplify and make Jesus more of the center is to bake him a birthday cake and sing "happy birthday" to Him. Kids grasp that concept from an early age and get excited about it. It's homemade and yummy too. I love to do crafts with my kids so I've been thinking about implementing a creative gift, drawing or letter to Jesus each Christmas. (I like the idea of saving them too and seeing how they grow in their understanding each year) I’m loving the new site.
