Two Christmas' ago we lived in a townhouse in Salt Lake and on Christmas morning we woke up early with excitement. Keedon was 10 mos old and we were expecting Quinton in March.
We thought we heard something outside but, maybe we didn't, all we know is that when we opened the door we found this beautiful box glowing all by itself on our porch.
This wonderful box was full of little gifts for baby and a couple fun things for Keedon, like a ball he takes everywhere. Among all of the gifts were little stockings and other creative Christmas items full of money, (that we were really in need of).
We were so thankful for this magical Christmas box and also so grateful for whoever was thinking about us, and was so generous with us.
Inside all the tissue paper were two pieces of paper. They said:
A gift for Baby
In honor of Baby Jesus.
We will never forget that Christmas nor that wonderful gift.
To remember; we keep the same tissue paper and the notes inside the box and pull it out at Christmas time.
This Christmas was so fun because we were able to put our best Gift from this year in it.
Cambel. We are so grateful he has come into our lives and what a fun season to celebrate that with him. We are so grateful for the other baby that was born long ago as well. Our Savior Jesus Christ. We know he lives and he loves us and this Christmas was so special because we got to feel really close to the story of his birth given the young age that our new infant is.

Beautiful story, beautiful baby, beautiful tradition. Thanks for sharing.
Love the new template!
Cambell is so darling! He's still so little. I just want to pick him up and cuddle him. My baby is growing way too fast. He's a giant - already in 6-12 month clothes (he just turned four months yesterday)! I love that he's in a Christmas present. You must have some great memories.
