We had a sweet time this Christmas with Peter's family. I think my favorite moment was when Samuel's Great Grandmother opened a gift which included some of the names that Jesus was to be called (as prophesied by Isaiah). She just began to read each one and as she did she talked with Samuel about the beauty of each one. I think as we get older and we have more time to really stop and think about who God is and the gift that His son truly is, we are more and more amazed by it. She certainly is. Right now I feel like just about every thought I have is interrupted, and my quiet times are often hurried and distracted, hoping someone doesn't wake early. While I don't like the thought of every aspect of aging, I do hope that as time goes by and as I have more time to reflect that I will be able to enjoy the wonder of Jesus more and more.
