It is this time of year that brings a sparkle to children's eyes. That belief in something beyond the daily life, an escape from reality. For those of us with kids it brings special feelings that make having children worthwhile.
Christmas is about faith and family. The reason we celebrate Christmas is for the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. As we all gather in our houses to celebrate Christmas reflect on the true meaning. Share the real gift of Jesus to those around you and soak up the time you get to spend with family.
You see I have five children and I am going to enjoy every moment spent with them.
I am going to enjoy seeing my older daughter and her husband. It is their first Christmas as a married couple and I am proud that he is serving our country and I am proud of what a strong and smart woman she has become.
My second daughter will be here as well and I really enjoy spending time with her. I am very proud of how hard she is working and that she continues to forge ahead to her dreams. Her sense of humor makes me laugh.
My third daughter is a delight to have around. She still lives with us and it has been great watching her grow up. I love her unique style, her artistic ability and her love of animals. She is growing into a wonderful young lady.
My fourth daughter is never at a loss for words. She has a passion for life and she has poured that passion into her love for swimming. She amazes me with how fast she is in the pool. Her passion will take her places.
Then there is my son, the youngest and my biggest fan. It is humbling to know that someone so little could find such joy in hanging out with his dad. He follows me like my shadow and would probably come to work with me if we let him. I can't wait to see the man he will become.
Children bring such joy and it wouldn't matter to me if I didn't receive anything for Christmas. I have Jesus in my life, a fantastic wife, five glorious children and a wonderful son-in-law. What more does a man need!
