The past two days have been a whirlwind! But we are enjoying the holiday season. Our activities were social ones both days (a playdate with Bree's friend, Kenzie, on Wednesday and MOPs today), but often those are Bree's favorite. She is a people person, for sure. She thrives on interaction with people. I still read her our Bible story each day. She's not getting sick of it, which is nice. I am using some of the books from my Advent Bookshelf to break up the way I tell it. I don't read it from the Bible each day. I love the book, "Hurry, Hurry! Have You Heard?" It's a great story about the animals coming to see baby Jesus and how He loves them, great and small.
Side Note: When reading about the animals, it talks about bugs (including a spider) and every time she says ... "but I don't like spiders." I try to remind her that God made even the spiders -- though I could never tell her why He did or admit I like them either... Oh well.
Bree has loved finding the Elf. Usually she and her dad find it in the morning before he leaves for work. Yesterday she was having a tea party. Bree thought that was hilarious. She said the bear and frog were the Elf's mom and dad.
Tomorrow is jam packed.
It is St. Nicholas Day - so we left their boots outside their doors. They will find a surprise in them tomorrow morning.
Then lesson and a craft. Tune in tomorrow!
Whew!
