This helped me exhale - this Christmas is looking completely different for many reasons. And, Jesus is still here. Thanks for sharing this.

John and Staci. I absolutely love the reactions of you both at time stamp around 36:50 where Staci replies “ the perfect gift to show that you love them, you know them, you see them” and John is laughing and resting your head in your hand… made me laugh. It put a little splash of joy in my heart to see you both so real and human and gracious to one another. Thank you, bless you.

This year and going forward, I am giving books to every family member on my list. I've told them and invited them to let me know something they've been wanting to read etc... I am a writer and I want my grandchildren to love reading. I asked my daughter if we could introduce a tradition of settling into the living room with a book and hot cocoa, eggnog, and mulled wine and spend an hour reading [and talking about it after]. And she thought that was a great idea! My love language is quality time together and I've always walked in that with family and friends. I live on my social security, so money is tight, but I planned for this and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm giving the married couples a book they can read together and discuss - an idea they all loved as well.

If I can be honest I’ve been feeling nervous about this Christmas, my little sister and her fiancé are coming over which is bringing so many feelings to the surface, partly because I had a painful breakup at the beginning of this year and I was really hoping that I would still have a significant other by the time someone gets engaged in my family. I’m just bracing my heart for wedding talk and that kind of thing. I wish I could speak excitedly with them about it, but every time I hear about them my heart just crumbles. Thank you that you are all always so honest! This Advent has been a nuclear war in the spirit realm for me ❤
