It’s a Wonderful Life
My favorite Christmas movie is the classic, “It’s a Wonderful Life”. Ever since the kids were very young we have had a tradition of watching it together as soon as we get the tree up. It’s one of my very favorite things we do as a family. A couple of weeks ago I mentioned on Facebook…
