Working on Christmas
Posted on | December 18, 2009 | 6 Comments
We stopped by Michael’s so I could get the boys some notebook materials and stumbled upon a little kit to make a foam nativity set. You have no idea now little thing like this make me giddy. I wanted them to make something this Christmas but the idea of ornaments for the tree just wasn’t very inspiring.
And this thing was 50% off.
Simple enough for the little one and interesting enough for the big one. Cute, yes?
And, yesterday, the boys finally got to see their Abba open the presents they bought him. They saved up for this and they just couldn’t stand the wait anymore.
J got him a laser pointer. Too fun!
NM, the careful and observant one, bought him a clock with weather info. “Careful and observant” came in handy when he paid attention to the box and noted that batteries were not included. So he bought Abba some batteries, too.
We’re looking forward to seeing our family in a couple of days. Please pray for us as we travel and get packed and ready for the long drive! Lord willing, we’ll get to see fun stuff again on the way. In the mean time, we continue to try and focus on the real Reason for the season.
“Don’t be frightened, Mary,” the angel told her, “for God has decided to bless you! You will become pregnant and have a son, and you are to name him Jesus. He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David. And he will reign over Israel forever; his Kingdom will never end!” Luke 1:30-33 NLT
May the God of all truth and Whose birth we celebrate rule and reign in your hearts forever.
