Excited for Christmas!

It's not even Thanksgiving but I cannot help but be excited for Christmas this year. I told Ben that I haven't been this excited since I was a kid! Every Christmas carol I hear/sing makes me smile and I can't help but ponder God's amazing love for me (and you) that He would come to earth as a tiny baby--helpless and weak and grow up to be the Savior of the world! For some reason, this truth rings louder some years verses other years, and for some reason this year it is really resonating in my heart. I am so thankful for Jesus...and his upcoming birthday.
