Christmas Card 2013

New Tradition

This post is quite a bit overdue, but since this blog is basically a family journal of sorts, I wanted to post it anyway.

After the holidays last year we started a new family tradition. We put all the Christmas cards that we received in a basket and each night at family prayer time one of us would choose a card out of the basket and we would talk about who sent it to us and then we would include that person or family in our prayer.

I really enjoyed it and I think that the kids did too. We had some particularly sweet prayers. I liked how it got the kids thinking of others and remembering family and friends.



I look forward to doing it again with the cards we get this year.

Appy Holidays!
