Charlotte and Josiah have been troopers with being packed up and shipped off to the homes of their friends in the last few weeks. Charlotte loves an adventure so she enjoys many play dates. Josiah enjoys being away from Mama for a shorter time, so he sometimes misses the fun. Yes, these play dates are amazingly fun for the kids. This is because their play dates are often created by Mary Poppins herself (Sally), or one of my friends (Sally)/family masquerading as such. Charlotte came home with a CRAFT from a play date on Saturday. Can you believe it? Not only did she have a craft (Sally), she brought a type-written itinerary (Sally) of her day with photographs (Sally).
Now Moms out there, take a deep breath.
This is not a competition.
PLUS, it is Advent and having internal space and calm is critical in making space in your heart and home for the worship of Jesus at Christmas.
This little angel is special you see;
Because she is a part of me.
Her wings are my hands,
Her body my feet,
And on the tree she'll look very sweet.
With that said, I thought some of you might like to see this darling little craft and give it a whirl. I have included the link where you can get specific instructions if your kiddos need something to do one afternoon this week. http://www.dltk-bible.com/mhandsangel.html
