I was talking to our friend Naema recently and I asked her what was her favorite gift she'd ever received for Christmas. She honestly replied that she never really received gifts for Christmas growing up because her family was poor. The differences in the culture sometimes put me in aukward situations.
But this time it also paved the way for something great. Upon hearing us talk, Samuel said the following:
"Daddy. My best Christmas gift is when Jesus came. My best Christmas gift is when he was born as a little baby and when he died on the cross to take the punishment for our sins."
I looked down at him, smiled, and gave him a big hug.
