There is no better feeling of excitement than when a child’s eyes open wide on Christmas morning, as their sleepy bodies quickly and anxiously hop out of bed and get ready to tear open their gifts. The shrills and screams, accompanied by raspy little morning voices is like a surround sound system bringing music to your ears. I don’t have children yet, but man, I can only imagine what it will feel like when I do. I know this time of year isn’t just about the physical gifts you give, but it’s a part of it. Watching my nieces and nephew unveil a new surprise with joy and happiness completely fills my heart. This year, at our annual Christmas Eve celebration, Santa appeared and the smiles were endless!!
Just a few of the boys waiting for the jolly guy to arrive. They were so cute looking for him out the window…..
And let me tell you, the anticipation was worth it. Just to see their tiny faces light up…….pure magic!
