December When You are 8 and 5

Favorite Songs: Caleb – Joy to the World, Evan – Away in a Manger

Favorite Advent Activities: Evan – sleigh ride (being pulled on a blanket, fast!), Caleb – pillow fight

Favorite Part of the Story: Both: the Wise Men (for different reasons…one likes the bling and the other gets giddy about Ancient Babylon.)

Other highlights: singing and crafting and baking with friends, holiday party, two different Christmas concerts, splashing in the season’s first rains, nightly cuddles with A Christmas Carol and sacred readings.
