love came down for christmas

As Christmas approaches Pat and I have been talking a lot about what we want this season to mean to our family. This has already brought up some traditions we're starting but it's more than that. We want to make sure it's not made out to be all about the gifts, we want to do that in moderation. We want our family to approach the holiday with open arms to help others, as we would hope to do all year long as well. We're trying to think of various ways that we can do this and have Zane be part of this too. Of course his participation will be minimal this year, but we why not start it now?

We've come up with some good options and I'm really excited about them. Christmas to us will hopefully be to just have a few things under the tree for Zane but to know that out there our family has made a difference, no matter how small it might be.
