are you busy?...like all of us...our weeks are packed now with Christmas programs...shopping..family get together... work..basketball...
But my #2 son turned 13 this past Thursday...
a Birthday... isn't that what this season is about anyway?
as I added the candles to his cake... I remembered each year..when he first walked... when he learned to throw that killer curve ball.. oh yeah, when he first began to read! {I had the privilege as a stay at home mommy..to home school my babies for a few years..}.. when he accepted Christ as his Savior and was baptized....
{my handsome #2 and his bestest friend... #2 is in the green shirt..and bestest friend lost a tooth thanks to those milk duds!looong story..lol...}
I am still recouping from sleep deprivation..anyone who has a young man and his friends over for a sleepover knows where I'm coming from..lol...
I do want to remember what this season is about... it's not about 'fashion'...or if the house is the envy of all the neighbors for it's wonderful decorations...or if our outfit will make everyone stop and drool for that Christmas party.... it's about a Birthday of a King.... the gift of peace, salvation and joy He gave us!!
... I just opened my present from my wonderful sister in law...scratch that...my sister in heart..she thought of me and sent me something to keep my toes warm during this Wisconsin Winter...Thanks Pam!! You have reinforced in me..what it's about...you rock my Vintage Sista!!!...
Blessings Friends...
XO
Merry Christmas, Christine, to you and your family. May it be one to remember.
