On Christmas Eve, we always have dinner at Mawmaw Conlee's house. We went over there after our Candlelight Service at Lakeland FBC and had a yummy dinner, but before opening presents, we had a little sing a long. It was fun. The kids loved it. We sang everything from Jingle Bells, Mr. Grinch to Away in a Manger and everything in between. Mrs. Conlee was even singing.
Then before we opened presents, we sat the kids down and explained the true meaning of Christmas. The story of Jesus birth and why we are celebrating is for his birthday.
Sarah then recited the Christmas story from Luke. I guess that Christian education from Macon Road Baptist School and growing up at Range Hills Baptist Church finally paid off. It made me proud of the momma she is becoming.
