Chritmas Eve Nativity

On Christmas Eve we always act out the nativity story...It is so much fun to watch the kids chose their part and act it out. After we finish the nativity story we turn out the lights and light some candles around Grandma's wooden nativity set from Israel. Then we all take a turn saying what gift we'd like to give the Savior. I was especially touched by the gifts my boys chose to give. 

Dallan: The gift of living in the moment. 

April: The gift of more patience. 

Josh: The gift of more time spent with the family 

Matthew: The gift of forgiveness and not holding a grudge            
  Mitchell: The gift of keeping his baptismal covenants.
