My girls ...This is exactly what we need right now. My girls are 10 and 12 and at an age when they believe in the magic of this holiday but see other get caught up in Santa and they wonder how to reconcile Santa with our faith. It is a confusing time and I want to lead them through this with grace and beauty. I am going to look into these resources. We are frantically trying to tie up some loose ends so we can use our December to celebrate the season and the true reason for the season.<br /><br />JessicaLJS https://www.blogger.com/profile/00557549680551581746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914993724763982306.post-30698623172419186002012-11-15T09:04:19.349-06:002012-11-15T09:04:19.349-06:00So glad you are joining us, Diane, and making your...So glad you are joining us, Diane, and making your Rediscovering Christmas your own!!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053965057224582328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5914993724763982306.post-83149484237973642572012-11-15T07:47:21.567-06:002012-11-15T07:47:21.567-06:00I totally agree with you. Now in the stores, Chris...I totally agree with you. Now in the stores, Christmas goes up at the same time of Halloween decorations instead of waiting to afterwards. We don't decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving and every year we tend to decorate less and less. Probably because the children are getting older. I downloaded Journey to Bethlehem, A Simple Advent Journey for your Family from Bow of Bronze to use for the month of December. It has crafts, scripture, devotionals, advent candle lighting and so much more. Really looking forward to doing this.<br />Blessings<br />DianeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10214322750183022876noreply@blogger.com
