Director's Corner:

Dear Parents,

This is a special time of year for all of us. We anticipate the celebration of the birth of our Lord all year and the special day will be here soon.

Seeing the children smile and talk about Santa, and their elf on the shelf is wonderful, but seeing their eyes light up when we talk about the true meaning of Christmas is priceless. Baby Jesus is a part of each of us and his birth is a birthday we all get to enjoy and rejoice in. This is also a time for giving and I want to thank those of you who have participated in our Christmas Ministries. There's still a little time left to help support them so stop by the front desk for more information.

As we celebrate this time of year it's also important to stop and enjoy it. Often we get so busy that the time passes us by before we even have a moment to remember what we are celebrating. So make sure you spend time with your family and loved ones, not just this time of year but everyday. It's wonderful to share the holiday with our family but even more wonderful celebrating everyday life with them. As we sing the praise of the birth of baby Jesus we also sing praises for our blessings and those blessings include you and your family. We love you all.

Blessings,

Jill Hammond, CDC Director
