Is there anything better than a craft project you can eat? And if you don’t get a sugar high, is it even fun?

The weary world rejoices…

We are getting so so close to traveling for our little Finn! Our friends designed these shirts for us to help with some of our adoption costs, and we love them… If you would like your own Brave Hope shirt, you can order one here!

New accessory for the boy…hoping this brace lets him put off surgery for a while. She’s learning about feelings at school. She holds her mad face up every time we tell her no…it’s so fun. Sometimes you just have to rock with your dinosaur in a santa hat. We got a picture with a santa…

Yesterday our article 5 was picked up from the US consulate in China…that means we are on step 14, and after today we are officially waiting on our travel approval! We are coming for you, sweet boy!

Sometimes momma is just not up for paint and glitter… So paper crafts it is. We still had glue, so that helped, haha.I laid out all the pieces, and asked the kids to tell the Christmas story.They turned out to be so so cute…

Shepherds would soon arrive and later, wise men from the east. Later yet the memory of that night would bring santa claus and frosty and rudolph- and all would be welcome…But first and forever there was just a little family.Without toys or trees or tinsel. With a baby. That’s how Christmas began.Â ~Jeffery R Holland
