"Santa clause is coming to town"

I hope you all have been enjoying Christmas break! In my opinion(and probably most people) it was time for one. Christmas break is more than a vacation to get away from school. It is a time to go be with family and appreciate what you have been blessed with. You get to eat yummy food that fills you to the brim. The food is pretty much a repeat of thanksgiving, except with a couple other things added. This is one of my favorite parts! Aside from eating, you get presents! This is how many people find joy in Christmas. Of course it is fun to receive gifts, but many people miss the true meaning of Christmas. Christ was born. If it was a day for opening gifts they would have called it "present day". Christmas should be a time to go to church and celebrate the fact that our savior came into the world on this day. It is a time to rejoice and give thanks. "Joy to the world, the Lord has come" "Come all ye faithful" "Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel!" The Christmas carols on the radio say it. I hope everyone had a wonderful break and is excited for 2013! Merry Christmas and Happy new year!
