We’ve had little things planned for most of the 12 day of Christmas. On Tuesday the girls went to our former Monday Funday sitter’s house to play, something they miss doing, I miss it too! And Wednesday we went out for lunch then had a birthday party to attend. We’re keeping it simple but “festive” and we’re still opening gifts…
The Wisemen started their journey to Bethlehem and stopped to watch Lily make a birthday card.

As Christmas draws near I attempt to prepare my home, the food, the gifts, etc. But do we prepare ourselves?
I can hardly wait to see the babies light up with smiles and squeals when they finally get to open gifts, when they finally get to see some of the new things we have for them, are allowed to eat as many sweets as they want and finally get to put baby Jesus in the manger.

Oh how this season always makes me miss my friends and family down in Texas. It starts in November, which is National Adoption Month, when my girlfriends Morgan and Eugenie come to mind so often and their stories of how the Lord blessed them and their husbands so richly through adoption.
So I asked Morgan, who is the mother of two beautiful girls, if I could share this short exhortation she wrote last year.
