Home for Christmas


 December 5, 2012

My first Christmas was 1933. I was a depression baby and grew up in a working  neighborhood. Like “The Waltons,” we didn’t have much but we had each other.

Christmas was a special time. We had a cut tree, electric candles in the windows, a fresh wreath on the door. Unlike the Waltons, Bible reading was not central in my family. However, my parents modeled moral values and I know the Lord blessed us. God loves a loving family.

 
“ And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children.

 And the hearts of the children to their fathers…” (Malachi 4:6)
