I love Christmas Eve just as much as Christmas Day and have as long as I can remember! We usually go to the service at First
Presbyterian with my family, eat a wonderful homemade supper, and open family gifts under the tree. This year, we had a bit of a detour. I ended up getting a migraine headache (the third one in a week!) that afternoon and Jackson fell and bit through his lower lip leaving a beautiful blood trail in our master bedroom. This was not the Christmas Eve that I had dreamed of! Thankfully, my headache was gone in time for supper, and we enjoyed a wonderful night with my family eating pork tenderloin, drinking Wassail, and sharing gifts with each other.
My favorite gift that the children were given was the children's Bible that I grew up with, the
Read-N-Grow Picture Bible. I had asked if Mom would get this for the kids because I loved it when I was young. It has 12 pictures per Bible story, which kept me riveted as a child. We have really enjoyed reading it with Rivers. Thank you Mimi and Pop-Pop!
