Christmas Eve has always been a magical time for me. Here's another thing I love about Christmas.
I love family
traditions. My family gathers on Christmas Eve and have a huge feast. Most of
us don’t exchange gifts anymore, but we all play the gift stealing game, and
that can get heated at times. Then we go caroling at the local nursing home.
What a joy to see my 5-yr-old grandson singing to elderly people who have no
one to celebrate the holiday with. Then back to Grammy’s house, where we join
hands around an angel-food cake with a candle and sing “Happy Birthday to
Jesus.” There’s nothing like my family’s Christmas!
How about you? How will you spend Christmas Eve? Leave a comment and tell me about it!
