I pray that as they experience the wonder and excitement of Christmas, that they would know you are at the center of our celebrations, and spend time thinking about you and why you came as a baby.
May the adults in their lives not stress the getting, but help them experience the joy of giving.

Treating Others Well
May each of these children I love seek to treat people well out of a sense that that is what is right, and not our of a selfish desire for popularity.
May they understand that true beauty and real character comes from how your are on the inside, not how you look on the outside.

Who's Most Important?
John 3:30 says "He must become greater; I must become less."
Children are ego-centric - their lives revolve around themselves. I pray that over time they would understand their place in relation to you, and choose to act on your desires rather than making their own wants priority. May they live for you, and not live selfishly.
