the one with the first presidency christmas devotional

so each year the

first presidency of

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

gives a christmas devotional

i kind of feel like it's the kick off to the season

and it reminds me of the real meaning

of my favorite holiday

[besides my birthday]

but the reason i love it the most

is because my mom loves it

and it reminds me of her

and then i feel a little bit closer

like 1,750 miles closer

this year, like last year, i had tickets

to the conference center for it

which i tried to bribe my mom with,

she didn't take it :(

but it's okay cause she watched it at home

and it made me feel close

like in this song kenny loggins sang,

at least i think it was him,

a song that had this in it

"And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star"

it helped me to know that we were watching the

same devotional
