Well, we took this week off of school to be sure and be prepared for the big day!!! Today was the day of baking cookies....and messing up the kitchen! Lots of baking done-Brownies, Chocolate Chocolate Chip cookies, Snickerdoodles, Sugar Cookies and Candy Cane Cookies, of course (a family tradition) A huge dinner for Dad and all of our gifts wrapped and ready to go. It doesn't get much better than that.
As our day unfolded, I realized how many opportunities for school I ran into today. Fractions, following directions, estimation, follow through, tons of opportunities! Yes, we took the week off of our formal school books, but we have focused on character building and understanding the true meaning of Christmas. I have realized how giving our children are...straight from the heart. They are truly ecstatic to have their Daddy home for Christmas. WHAT A BLESSING! Thank you Lord-Thank You.
