Monu, thank you for your good wishes. I do celebrate Christmas to a degree. I realize that it has been documented that Jesus Christ was not born on December 25, but that is of no matter to me. I believe in celebrating His birth on every day of the year. I must admit that the Christmas season has become far too commercialized which has jaded the viewpoint of many but, I look at it as an opportunity to stress the importance of the birth of Christ to the children to let them know that the entire meaning is not for the receiving of gifts. It is most unfortunate that the early Roman church deemed it wise to associate Christmas with the pagan ritual of saturnalia, but that is far from the only mistake they have made.

I wish you and your family to best of days, and, again, praise the Lord that He was born, regardless of the exact date.
