Adventures in Advent

It begins....We love celebrating Advent; the moments we pause from the craziness of the day, light the candles, read His word, guess what ornament is in the bag, sip chocolate milk and eat cookies, and announce our family adventure for the day.  We anticipate and share and pray together.  Some nights I am exhausted and would rather just call it a day but the girl's excitement always make me remember the joy of this special time.  It is not polished or perfect but it is our family's way of waiting for Christ and marking this special time;a time the weary world awaits.
