Wow, been watching some cute christmas stories on TV. Christmas movies---I enjoy some of those charming one where everyone believes in the spirit of Christmas. If you are a true believer of Jesus Christ, you know He is the reason for Christmas.
Back to the shows--and movies...I have noticed a lot of them were targeted towards single moms (mostly were widows or divorced...) and always fall in love with the guy and they get married and the kid(s) get their christmas wish after all, to be a real family.
My daughter and I were watching one that has a sequel. I don't remember the first movie's title but the second one is titled "Meet the Santas". We saw that last year and enjoyed it. This year just gets better. I watched Holiday Switch where this struggling housewife was wishing for a different kind of life. Woke up (I am not sure how she got into this other life...I was cooking dinner or something) and she's a rich lady. Turns out she is in the process of divorcing this guy and she was wishing to go back to her old life, back to her kids and her husband. For that one, the point of that movie was to be thankful for what you have now. Whether you're rich or poor, you should be happy with what you have.
Today I mentioned to my husband we should be very grateful for the things we have. Nothing is about me, or you. It has to be about the family. But mostly has to be about Jesus Christ. We should be so thankful for what we do have.
I had gone out and fell in love with another nativity set. It has verses written on the figures. Very beautiful. I have set it up under my tree, onto my tree skirt that says Celebrate the Gift of Jesus. I thought wow, I need to take a picture of that. Unfortunately I do not have a digital camera. When my daughter gets one for Christmas, I'll borrow it and post it.
We're under Winter Storm advisory. At 5:30 pm today, I looked outside and there was nothing going on. About 5 minutes later I looked outside my kitchen window, and wasn't sure if I was seeing dusting of snow. So went back to look out the living room windows. WHOA! SNOW! Already! I just looked out there few moments ago!! We probably got more than couple inches of snow now. Praying, PRAYING it won't be bad in the morning and we can make it to church. I have the crockpot on low, cooking chicken dumplings for our deaf fellowship luncheon. If we can't make it, well, we'll have it for ourselves then.
It's late. Good night.
