They had a very late church service on Christmas eve and afterward, as a family they would walk home, singing carols as they went. Arriving just about midnight, they let in the Christ child as they re-entered their home and then opened gifts. My grandmother would often rehearse this part of her family history with us.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15300961190388848899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-28356974764057858032010-12-23T18:05:30.634-05:002010-12-23T18:05:30.634-05:00that is awesome!that is awesome!Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03791141541209894505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-34248528838370000692010-12-23T16:29:41.330-05:002010-12-23T16:29:41.330-05:00I love this idea of letting the Christ child in.
