Someone Else’s Birthday

She gave birth to her firstborn, a son.  She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger.   Luke 2:5-7In January this past year, I received an email from a family friend, a young mom who was commenting on her toddler's take on Christmas:"I think Zander will really look forward to Christmas next year - now that he gets it - on the kid level anyway.  He knows it is Jesus' Birthday and I think he's pretty impressed that on someone else's birthday - he gets all the gifts!"  

Short and sweet.  Profound truth. The “kid level” is where I hope I’m at when this time of year rolls around.  For a lot of reasons, particularly because it’s Someone else’s birthday.
