This Christmas season was a little different for me, mostly because it was the first time I was away for most of December, so I had to come up with a few traditions of my own, which was harder then I thought. Traditions are a lot more meaningful when you share them with others but I was able to come up with a few little things to do.
As I was pondering the Christmas story a lot over the last month I kept thinking about Mary and Joseph and what must have been going through their minds and hearts not only in the months leading up to Jesus's birth but throughout Jesus's life. Especially Joseph since we know a little bit more about Mary. How does one parent the Son of God? They must have had it pretty easy with Him, talk about a shock when the other kids came! I had watched a movie called Mary and Joseph which was ok as far as movies go, but it focused mostly on Joseph and his role as Jesus's earthly father. I still haven't thought all the way through that idea but it's definitely interesting to think about.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a wonderful New Year!
