Christmas Traditions with Your Family

Christmas Traditions with Your Family Do you have special Christmas traditions with your family? Whether handed down from generation to generation, or beginning anew, most everyone does. It is Christmas morning. The stockings hung on the fireplace are filled with goodies, and the presents around the tree are beautifully wrapped. The children awake very early, sensing that something magical has occurred the night before. There is a flurry of activity as you hear them rush into your room and excitedly announce, “Santa was here! Santa was here!” The lights on the tree seem to guide them to it, and they look down at all of their presents with wide-eyed wonder. The Christmas tradition with your family has begun.

Milk and home made cookies for the kids round out the meal.
