Two posts in one day. Yes....you are lucky and I have no life, obviously. ;) OK...I had to post this one today just in case someone wants to get it done by Wednesday. It's an advent calendar, but using trees. Found it HERE. Super cute. They give you a template to use when drawing the trees. Really easy, and then just use double sided tape to mold them into cute little trees. I just used paper I had on hand already and cut them out.
Since I have three children, each will have their own day with a few fun things mixed in. Like this next Saturday (the 4th) we are going to get our Christmas tree, so the coupon under the tree will say "Tree outing - and hot chocolate at Starbucks." A few days I have some fun little toys for them, but it doesn't have to be all toys and things that cost money. Some days I have bible verses, other days we are going to make homemade cookies, or gingerbread houses. I think I am more excited about this than they are!! ;)
Mom of three super fun and super cool children (Caleb, Grace, Madeline) and wife to one super cool dude - Andrew. Just living life and trying to do the best we can to mold these little sprouts into who God designed them to be. And trying to be "IN" the moments with them rather than looking back and wishing we had spent more time together as a family. And...to be content. Content with where I am in life as a wife and mom. Content with the circumstances God brings into our lives. Life moves by at warp speed, and I want to be present for it. (Jer. 29:11)
