Merry Christmas

Celebrating Christmas in India means a normal day to the every-day people we daily encounter. But for those of us either from the West or with a faith that teaches the birth of a Majestic Savior through the humble smallness of a child, the 25th is That special day.

And so for us the Spotts, we find ways to celebrate outside our home country, but very much inside a country dear to us. Although time with Shane's grandparents, uncles and aunts will always be missed, Ben and I will include their lives to our children through story telling and memories. We will also teach our family, including ourselves, the beauty of doing life with others who really aren't that different from us after all.

Missing yes but feeling blessed beyond measure to spend another Christmas in India.
