wrapping presents

This too is important to me. I want the kids to be in awe of the entire beauty of this season. It's about Jesus, and that's the most beautiful story ever told. I feel as though I have an obligation to make my room honor that beauty. That includes the presents. So every other night I sit on the cold hard wood floor wrapping. I only get a few finished in one night, but again, it will all be done by December 20th. So long as the kids come downstairs with inexplicable joy. I want that feeling to be remembered for a lifetime.
