24 days to Christmas

December already, Christmas is approaching. I am trying hard to fill my children's surrounding with the true meaning of Christmas and combat the secular greed agenda. We went to Grand Rapids MI this past week end and I picked up an advent devotional for the family and a wooden advent calendar. I really like the devotional, it uses the advent candles and manger scene as visuals for the children and has lots of family activities.

It was good to see Bob and Bernie again, I stayed with them during my College years. Bernie is combating cancer again. I am so thankful I could see her again and share the joy of my family with her.

Well my goal for this month is trying to prioritize and let go that which I don't get too instead of getting stressed or hard on myself.
