True Meaning of Christmas.

With Christmas just around the corner I thought I might share my thoughts on Christmas.  Christmas is about the birth of Jesus.  God gave us a gift (to save us) with his only son and therefore we now give presents just like God did.  SO where does Santa come in.  Well he was back in the 1800.  A minister called Nicholas.  He gave gifts to the poor.  One day he tried to say 3 young girls from prostitution by throwing them each a small sack full of money for doweries so that they were able to marry and not stay in prostitution.  He became a Saint for his good works and man took it from there by creating a red suit and all the bells and whistles to boot.

All of my children have grown up not believing in Santa but knowing the true meaning of Christmas. 

So from My Family Merry Christmas and a very safe New Year.
