I had plans to share something else with you today, but I've been experimenting and it isn't quite right yet so that will have to wait for another day... in the mean time. I've been reflecting a lot this year on how I want to celebrate the holidays in our home now that we have a little one. Christmas is a magical time of year with Santa and gift giving, but I want to focus on what we really need to be celebrating this Christmas, the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. As you may or may not know, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints does a Light the World campaign every year to help people give and serve this time of year to help us all feel the light of Christ in our lives and focus better on the true reason for the season. This year the Church has divided it by weeks, and this week we are encouraged to especially focus on lighting our community through service. There are a lot of big ways to serve, but one of my favorite ways at Christmas time is to make treats and take plates of goodies to people to tell them Merry Christmas and let them know you're thinking of them! Well, right here on the blog we have already shared posts on some great holiday Christmas recipes! At this link you can read about 16 Cookie Recipes to Share this Christmas! At this one we turned some of our favorite recipes into new holiday favorites just be tweaking them a little. Whatever you do to celebrate Christmas, I hope you'll take a little time to bring some light into the world. I know Jesus Christ is the Light, and if we try to be like Him a little more each day, we'll feel that Christmas Spirit all year long.
