Reasons:
1. I finally got to spend it with my darling husband. The past 2 Christmas's I looked forward to a silly little phone call from Jeremy. Not this year... instead I got to spend it with him just like I always hoped. Jeremy and I were so giddy and so excited for Christmas; we didn’t end up falling asleep until 2:00 AM. I felt like a 5 year old trying to fall asleep so I could see what Santa brought that morning. Jeremy and I gave our gifts to each other Christmas Eve because Christmas was so busy. It is fun starting our own traditions for our small family.
2. We have the best families! The whole Christmas morning while we opened gifts and watched others opened gifts I couldn’t help but think how grateful I am to my parents and my new parents. They did everything they could to make our Christmas perfect… and it was.
3. Last, both of our families got to volunteer at the Bishop Store house a few days before Christmas by inspecting bars of soap. Some bars of soap were not packaged correctly, others were wet, and some even moldy. After inspecting 500,000 it seemed to get monotonous, until I thought where the soap was going. As both of our families had the best Christmas we could ever ask for, many people get soap for Christmas. I’m grateful not only for my Christmas but for the blessings in my life.
