Our first Christmas miracle was being able to switch my shift the Saturday before Christmas so that David and I could both be home Christmas morning. Even though we both worked the afternoon/night of Christmas, we had the morning to enjoy. David worked Christmas Eve so when he came home Christmas morning, we were able to eat breakfast, read Luke II, open presents and even play a couple rounds of one of our new games: Guillotine, before David headed to bed to catch a little sleep for his shift later that night. It was a wonderful Christmas morning and I enjoyed spending it with just the two of us. It even snowed just a little bit, enough to make me excited.
My favorite presents were two books that my parents put together containing pictures of my grandparents and their families growing up. I will treasure them forever and can't wait to show them to my own children since my grandparents are no longer alive.
