Our Christmas Eve Tradition

As Christmas approaches, more and more presents appear under the tree. On Christmas Eve, we take turns the presents to each other. This year, Grandma and Grandpa Besaw joined us for dinner and the gift exchange. I enjoy the gift exchange on Christmas Eve because the kids exhibit joy as they struggle to contain the giddiness they feel over giving. They are filled with hope that the recipient will like their present. On Christmas, when they get Santa's and Dad and Mom's presents, the "joy" is more exhilaration over getting the longed for present.
