It’s a Short One
Ahhh, one of my favorite days of the year, December 21st. Why you ask? Well, it’s the shortest day of the year. Now some people would say, wait you want less time in the day? Sorry let me clarify, it’s the day of the year when we have the least daylight and the longest night. Sooo, that means tomorrow…

The Simpleness of the Season
Over the past few days, I’ve been mentioning in this little blog how I’ve been seeing and feeling the simple things about this Christmas. Yesterday I mentioned possibly starting a new tradition of just one gift and that one being homemade. I guess the simpleness of the season continued last night. We were late getting out of…

Only Made with Love
Yep, we are just one week away from Christmas. As we all scramble to get those last things checked off the list, the last minutes gifts, the baking, Christmas cards, and parties, I hope we can find a moment to just be. I’m just as guilty as others, getting so wrapped up in the traditions and the…

Rose Sunday
One week from today is Christmas Eve. I know, if you are like me you are not quite sure where the entire year went, much less December. Today though, we celebrate Rose Sunday, or the third Sunday in Advent. We, like many, have an advent wreath displayed in our home. There is one pink candle among the three…

Last night we had dinner with our Godson. He moved to Tampa several years ago so we, even after all these years, aren’t that far apart. We try to see each other serval times a year, especially near Christmas. I shared the story about us becoming his Godparents in this little blog earlier this year. It was…

It’s sung by Josh Groban and if you’ve ever watched The Polar Express you know which song I’m referring to, (hint, I’ve also included it below in this little blog). Now don’t get me wrong there are many Christmas songs that I…

Wow – Thank You
Ya, that is all I can really say, is WOW… This morning as I sat down to write this little blog, I had a plan, (now that in itself is unusual). I was putzing around this morning and lost track of time, so was going to go a totally different route with this. Then when I logged…

In the Eyes of a Child
Yesterday I spent some time at a wonderful event we have each year at our church. We call it “Cookie Sunday”. Each year on the 2nd Sunday in Advent hundreds of sugar cookies, (baked by a wonderful group of women), are set out for the children and youth, (and let’s face it even the adults),…

Shop and Serve
The title of today’s little blog sounds like the name of a great new eating establishment 🙂 . Actually, though I was thinking this morning about the great day we had yesterday, but in a way I was sad. Let me explain. My husband and I actually chilled a little yesterday morning. We had a…

Song for Your Saturday
Happy weekend friends! During this busy time as we near Christmas, I wanted to leave you with a short prayer and a short song to begin your day. This is just a wonderful piece of music for the season. Heavenly Father, thank you for this day, another day to share your love and do your…
