This brief moment was Christmas at it's best for me. Bret and Nicole were in charge of Christmas Eve this year. The food was scrumptious, every one's mood was high in anticipation of the Big Man's arrival, but dearest of all was the moment Bret knelt around the baby Jesus and spoke with the kids about his love for the Savior and the true meaning of Christmas. Then we all gathered around as his offered a Christmas family prayer. Blessing in detail each family, Chicago to Athem, Grandma to Jeff, all of our personal needs. Thank you Bret and Nic. You carried Christmas in our door.
