'Tis the Season for Family

Today was the last day of Christmas, and I spent almost all of it with family. We hung out, ate together, played with legos and toy swords, and played card games. We shared smiles, movie quotes, and many laughs. Not much was said about Christ, however, which makes me slightly worried that we didn't fully capture the Spirit of the holiday, at least not today. But we did capture one element of the holiday. Christmas is a time for worshipping Christ, which we did Sunday, and it's also a time for exchanging gifts, which we did yesterday, but it's also a time to spend with family, which is what we did today. Next to worshipping Jesus, spending time with family may only be a secondary aspect of Christmas, but it is an important aspect of Christmas, so I'd say that, for a holiday, today was a day well spent.
