It is the first Sunday of Advent! O Come Emmanuel!
A few years ago, I blogged the Jesse Tree....a wonderful and rich (in the spiritual sense) tradition. I hope to travel through those blog posts this year again with the kids, along with reading Ann Voskamp's Jesse Tree devotional for myself. You can find my first Jesse Tree blog post here.
And to really get in the mood, you should watch this:
Lastly, here is a little slice of life with the boys.... We are going through the Christmas boxes and the boys find my Nutcracker--yes, the one just like Clara receives in the great Christmas ballet and my just SEEING it inspires a pas de bourree. Apparently, the Nutcracker was taken down to quiet time, which I discovered by Hudson's request of nuts to crack. When I said we have none, he went outside in the rain to find acorns! Can't wait to see what mess awaits :)
Blessed Advent!
