Christmas

I could not think of a better way to share our December with you,

then through pictures.

My eldest had a birthday a few days before Christmas. She took her besties out to eat and then to ride go-karts along with some laser tag.

She loved her new bike basket....so did her lil' brother.

The days leading up to Christmas were a fun time.

My 2 littlest ones often dressed up as Mary and Joseph.....so cute!

Our kids took part in our church's Christmas Pageant. What a fun time that was!

Mimi(my mom) held our annual "Grandkids Cookie Decorating Party

Christmas Eve before our church service

Their smiles will give away the excitement they experienced opening their presents.

"Well, let’s look at the metaphor of the Greenhouse—or the hothouse, as some have called it. You don’t transfer plants right from the greenhouse into the field. Before that transfer, plants go through an intermediate process called a “cold frame.” A cold frame differs from a greenhouse in that it doesn’t have as much temperature control. There’s much more fluctuation of temperature than in the greenhouse. There, the plants get used to changing temperatures so they don’t go into shock out in the field. That’s where the plants are “hardened.”

Similarly, there are transitional involvements and activities that allow our children—once they’re well-rooted morally, doctrinally, and spiritually and have a strong sense of what they believe and who they are in Christ—to progressively be exposed to different points of view."
