Meaning of Christmas?

"Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about!?!"

"Sure Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about."

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. —Luke 2:8-14

"That's what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown."

With Erin and I traveling to Moorhead tonight and then after Christmas, making the trek to Peshtigo, I'm not sure how much I'll be able to update the blog. 'Til next time, have a great Christmas and Happy (earthly) 2006 Birthday Jesus!
