our advent calendar includes candy and a simple gift for our spirit.

















Balance is the hardest part of the holidays for me.  I have this struggle every year about how to handle Christmas with the girls.  I want them to have magical memories of the holidays as a child as well as a deep connection to Christmas that goes well beyond the decorations, gifts and dreams of Santa.  I want them to understand not only the power of Christ but the great gifts of family, love, forgiveness, peace, joy, and the wonders of nature.
