We seldom if ever have our grown children with us on Christmas, they are with their grown children and grandchildren, but wherever we are, we insist on following one tradition that we have continued since our first child was born. At the dinner table someone will read the 2nd chapter of Luke, the story of Christmas. Sometimes we read it before the Christmas dinner, sometimes it is read afterwards. Some years now it is just my husband and myself. The other Christmas tradition is the football game on the TV. My husband is a BIG football fan. When we can, we go to the candle light service on Christmas Eve night.
