Christmas is a bit overwhelming. So much business, so much family, so much memories. Trying hard not to be constantly remembering, how it was or thinking how it should be.
I miss my dad, his humor, his laugh. As a kid, Christmas was the day we saw the most of him. So Christmas is a time I am reminded the most of him. He's the one who always had the music playing in the background, he's the one who picked the movies to watch. He's the one who made fun of all the gifts.
I also miss my son, I wonder what Christmas would have been like. One more stocking hung, one more child to chase, one mess after another to clean up.
But they are both celebrating with the Savior. What a party it must be in Heaven every day as Gods promises are fulfilled and His glory shown.
I just need to get away from reminiscing and wishful thinking and remember what Christmas is really about. It's not about family, laughter, being loving to one another. It is about how God showed his love for us by sending His one and only Son, that all who believe in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
