After driving grandma home, we came home and made some preparations for our breakfast, then we sat down together and watched the Nativity and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. For scripture study for the month of December we have been reading Matthew. Usually we read from the Book of Mormon each night as a family. But during this month we have read about our Savior in the New Testament. We have loved to learn about the Savior and all that He did in His earthly mission. We read about His birth and many of the miracles that He performed. It has strengthened my testimony of my Savior and the good that He did while on the earth. Next December we will read Mark, hopefully we can learn more each year about our Savior and become closer to Him and we can become more like Him. As a family we discussed the gift of His life and that is the best gift that we have, and His gift to us was living and giving us a perfect example and then dying for our sins. I want my kids to know that it is better to give than to get. This is such a special time of the year and hopefully it makes a difference in their lives. I love my kids and family very much and I especially love my Savior.
