It was a crazy but wonderful holiday, as all Christmases end up being anyway, no matter how much we want to simplify.  With my new calling leading the women's group at church this year, my family and I had lots more opportunities to serve and see others serving.  That was neat. I love my family and I am grateful to them and so many others that reach out and take on responsibilities. Merry Christmas!
