We love to do service! The family rule is every person must drop off at least one present on the door step. The tradition continues on...
We just wanted to take a picture of the original Christmas Eve drop off to a family in need. It was again another heart warming experience to give so much to a family who has so little. My parents are serving a mission in the Inner City Mission in Salt Lake City. Being there they are surrounded by such humble and loving people. For the past few years we have been able to learn more from these sweet people and to share our abundance with them. It was fantastic to hide on the side of the house and listen to their joy and excitement. The young children exclaimed, "Presents...it is Santa!" Over and over again we could hear squeals of joy and jubilation. I LOVE this feeling of listening to their joy. It instantly brings tears of joy to my eyes and heart. I love that we have been taught this blessing of serving and giving to others in need, and most importantly I loved sharing it with my children and my nieces and nephews. What a wonderful gift, to give to others. I love it!
