Winnie the Pooh & Christmas, Too

Come Christmas Eve, we usually go to my mom and dad's. Everybody brings one gift and then we play that game when we all steal it from each other. Some are really cool, others are useful and some are a bit out there.

Faith is salted and peppered through everything at Christmas. And I love at least one night by the Christmas tree to sing and feel the quiet holiness of that time that's set apart to celebrate love, friendship, and God's gift of the Christ child.

You got to think about Thanksgiving, Christmas . . . we're going to be in a new environment, ... We're used to going over to each other's house and eating. That's going to be the hard part.

I write about everything, but I just - how faith filters through all that and colors your opinion of other people and life and all that.
