I've felt the hustle and buslte a little more severe this year since we are leaving this weekend for Texas, everything has sped up! YIkes. So I'm stopping right now and counting my joys, in attempt to dismiss those stressful feelings!
watching gideon's debut peformance in handbell choir at church....you've never seen someone ring a bell so hard; I laughed so hard all my makeup melted right off!
making a gingerbread house with our bible study group complete with a koi pond and playground, I'd post pictures but Gideon's eaten half already!
our first dusting of snow
not working much lately!
Christmas carols
Gingerbread cookies
Seeing baby Jesus everywhere!
Anybody else wanna chase the Christmas stress away, got any joys to share?!!
"In Him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in His holy name"
Psalm 33:21
It seems like you have quite a few joys in your life right now.
ReplyDeleteThe drive thru live nativity down the road from here, complete with llamas, horses, donkeys and sheep...and the long lines down the highway waiting to go through it! If I ever get bummed about all the commercialism, I just think of how popular this nativity is here (it runs for 4 nights) and I feel the peace. We waited an hour last night to see it! It was awesome.
ReplyDeleteI know this is a little late, but hearing all the Christmas songs that everyone sings about Jesus always makes me cry. My life is infinitely better because He was born.
