We're having our "Holiday" program tomorrow...not a Christmas Program a Holiday Program.
The kids will sing Christmas songs...about Santa, Trees, and Bells...no nativity at all.
We will sing a Hanukah song...no baby Jesus in the manger.
A "holiday" a time where kids get lots of stuff but miss the one thing that they really need...and I can't really talk about it...I read a book about the Baby in the Manger today and not one of my kids could tell me what that meant...
I'm missing the joy of Christmas and the celebration of the Birth of a Savior...where I work it's all Santa and stuff...no joy...just stuff.
It's really Sad...and empy feeling...I'm thankful that I have joy in my CHRISTMAS...its more than just a Holiday!

Hey Erin. Hang in there. I understand where you are coming from. When I was at Lawrence, it was worse. Santa couldn't even be mentioned. It was only about celebrations and winter. We've been spoiled the past few years to have the opportunity to talk about Christ's birth. At least your family knows the true meaning. Keep the faith girl!
