My husband, 6 children and I decided to spend our Christmas with missionaries who leave their families for 2 years to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ with the world. They have all become our family.
My baby boy - he's only 39 yrs old - will bring his wife & youngest daughter over. I try to make a big pot of chicken noodle soup for everyone. All home made. His 2 older boys might come over. They're both in their late teens, so ... Maybe they'll be here.
My older son, his wife, & 5 kids live quite a ways away, so, unfortunately I have to make do with a phone call. I miss them all so much!
I could care less about the gifts. But, seeing & talking to my kids & grandkids is worth it's weight in gold!💖
