Was that the Doorbell?

My second favorite Christmas tradition is our “Christmas Eve Box“. Sometime during the evening of Christmas Eve…our doorbell rings (a fast neighbor…who can run baby run)…we let our kids run to the door…there on the step is a box. It has stickers, stamps and looks like it has traveled far..maybe even across the ocean!

There is a letter attached…usually in a “poem” talking to the kids about their year, blessings upon them for the upcoming year and wishing them a Christmas to remember! It is signed by only saying …”Wishing you a White Christmas“! Now my girls still are very unsure who this is from…my son, I think knows but I won’t give in when he asks…I act as surprised as the kids.
