Christmas Day
Christmas was loads of fun this year! The kids got a mountain of presents. Bryson surprised me with a beautiful diamond necklace. It was wonderful to spend the day with extended family and, of course, our children. I'm so grateful that we get to spend each December focused on the Savior's birth, life and Atonement.
President Hinckley expressed it perfectly: "Now, the next thing of which I am certain, and of which I bear witness, is the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ. Without it life is meaningless. It is the keystone in the arch of our existence. It affirms that we lived before we were born in mortality. Mortality is but a stepping-stone to a more glorious existence in the future. The sorrow of death is softened with the promise of the Resurrection. There would be no Christmas if there were no Easter."
Amen.
