Dedicated to the King.....


I look at Christmas as the most important day in history.
Love so great that a son was sacrificed and sent to save the meek, lowly, suffering, and sinners alike. His example of humility in being born in a stable just the start of a life lead in service to others and to his Father in Heaven. As I cuddle my own babies this Christmas, I can't help but relate to Mary...
There must have been so much love in that stable that night. 
There must have been so much wonder and awe. 
There must have been so much hope.

"But you, Bethlehem, though you be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." ~Micah 5:2

This little baby, the King of Kings would change human kind!

From Gabe and I, Veronica and Gabriel, 
we wish you all a very Blessed Christmas with your loved ones!!

wishing you all the joys of the season Anna! what a beautiful bunch of goodness here - LOVE IT. i remember playing with my Mom's nativity set as a little girl and i loved running my fingers over the mossy top of the stable and rocking baby Jesus in his crib...not to mention all the animals in the manger, they had the most gentle eyes. always soothed me to know each Christmas i would be reminded of the story and could act it out in the spirit of love.

oh, seeing you all together positively warms my heart, much joy to you all - many blessings over the holidays and always!!! xo ♥

Amen girl. My mom always reads the Christmas story from the Bible before we open presents, and it made me a little teary eyed this year. Such a special day.
