Christmas Chain

I was listening, or reading something about how people typically count down the days to Christmas. This led me to want to count UP the blessings we have, especially those at Christmas time. A Paper Chain was made of red and blue construction paper. Each day (or almost each day) we took a few minutes to think about something we were thankful for, hopefully that related to the season. Here is what was written down:

1. Family
2. Friends
3. Time Together
4. Jesus
5. Singing Carols
6. Decorations
7. Jesus' Birth
8. Scriptures
9. Food on our shelves
10. Caroling Family Home Evening
11. Abbie
12. Daddy
13. Giving gifts
14. Mommy
15. Brady
16. Comfort
17. To Give gifts
18. To Receive gifts
19. Learning
20. Work
21. Toys
22. Animals
23. Joseph Smith
24. Love
