  • We wanted to make the Christmas story come a bit more alive this year, so we set up a small nativity scene in our old barn for Xander!

    What a BEAUTIFUL way to show/ tell Xander the Christmas story. Such a blessing to know God's love for us that He sent His only begotten son.
    So precious to see Christmas through the eyes of a child.

    Merry Christmas and Xander is Blessed to be told and shown everything about Jesus. And teaching family values and real joy. We have three daughters married, seven grandchildren, and three great grandchildren. I lost my husband of 43years, seven years ago. It would have been our 50th. We are Blessed with the church and family Jesus has given us. I am United Pentecostal. And have been a Professional Interpreter for the Deaf and Deaf/Blind. We have children and grandchildren born that way. But very successful and blessed. Most of us can speak two or three languages. God uses them as a Blessing for Him. There is much to teach Xander. I understand you health problems girl. Mine almost have killed me. But God takes care of the widow. He promised that in his word.

Xander was very attentive to the story about Jesus’ birth as he could easily reiterate it for you and Nolan. I appreciate the fact that you two explain Jesus and the real meaning of Christmas to Xander so he can understand it; as far as a three year olds perspective. I wish you a magnificent 2021 year and God’s blessings.✝️❤️

Because of you and Xander we gave our great grandson a balance bike today for Christmas and he was riding in no time. Oh how happy he was. Your husband's love in telling Xander the story of the birth of Jesus brought tears to my eyes. His voice is so soft and sincere. I love your channel and look forward to each video and I'm 74 and a great granny. I hope you have a big following of younger people because they could learn from how you and Nolan are parenting.

    I loved this! So sweet. I was especially excited when you began singing the song at the end. I sang that as a child for a Christmas pageant at school. My solo was, “I was the camel all yellow and black, I carry the Wiseman on my back. I carried the gift in the Wiseman’s pack. I said the camel all yellow and black.” Such a memory since my mom surprised me with a yellow and black dress and new black shoes to wear. This was especially sweet since my dad had broken his back and was out of work. My older brothers and sisters told me in later years that we ate very frugal meals to pay for my new clothes. Parents sacrifice for their children. You went to great lengths to provider Xander the most Christmassy of Christmas’s. Xander is a blessed boy.
