To me it is the time for celebrating Jesus's birthday and celebrating with the family, this will be my girls first Christmas, I pray for peace in the world and that my baby that I lost a month ago is with God
How do you celebrate Christmas?

Christmas is a time for giving and sharing ,it's a wonderful time to get together with family ,friends and share the love you have for them, And christmas is a reminder of Jesus birth day a wise man who loves all and christmas represent and remind us that not only we are loved by our families ,but also reminds us that ,he who came from god saved us all from our sins.and placed us in his everlasting love.
When a child is born ,Families are very delighted and full of love,they give and cherish every bit of that day and memories will never fade.
Christmas is jesus day ,a day that will never fade away too, Because of his great teaching to forgive and be honest and loyal to yourself and to others.
I celebrate christmas by giving a gift from the heart to show the respect and care i have for my families and friends.
And wishing them best regards on a card will show them how much they are remembered.
My best wishes to you and your dear ones , God bless your christmas with his love and care with every moment of happiness.

christmas is the time to be with all the family. it is a time for love and giving, though this you can do anytime of the year. but when it's christmas it seems so easy to love everyone and share all your joys and blessings. there is a special magic that goes with chirstmas that i can't explain, it's just that everything around you seems to be your friends even if only during christmas. and it is such a joy that there is a friendly and happy mood all around.
i celebrate christmas with all the family members. we stay together at the old house from the 24th up to the 25th evening. we have our own party, "kris Kringle", games and just talking and enjoying everybody's company. it is just a simple celebration but we are happy and we enjoy it.

Tiger Lily I weep for your loss. I will pray for you and your family.
For me Christmas is 12 special days, not one day. We traditionally have an Epiphany party on 12th night. At the party we have a house blessing, rededicating our family and home to Christ.
The Messiah we focus on is not the infant Jesus, but the reigning priest, prophet, and king. The adult Christ of Christmas is at the center of our celebration. His passion, death, and resurrection are foreshadowed at his birth. To put it bluntly, without Good Friday and Easter there would be no need to celebrate Christmas. (For this reason I don't ever participate in baby showers or birthday parties for Jesus.)

Awwwwww Sorry to hear that :(
I celebrate Jesus' birthday as well we actually buy a cake.
I spend time with the family and friends opening gifts and enjoy the time with family and never take it for granted. I sit back and reflect on the year and imagine the next Christmas as well.
Happy Holidays to you!

Family. And you don't "celebrate jesus birthday", you do the same thing the rest of us do. You get the day off, open presents, have good food, and spend time with family. If you were "celebrating jesus birthday", you wouldn't do any of those and would spend all day in church or helping those who need it like working in a soup kitchen.

TigerLily, My condolences.....so very sorry to hear of your loss. I too lost an infant and I know how devastating that can be.
My best to your family.
I don't celebrate Christmas.....it's a "merchants harvest" and has nothing whatsoever to do with Jesus.
Peace

To celebrate the turning Wheel of the Year and welcome back the sun. To find warmth with loved ones in the midst of Winter.
I am very sorry for your loss, my dear.
