Catriona and Kurtis helped me make our first Advent wreath...I really enjoyed doing this with them, and last night we lit the first candle during dinner, then we had a family meeting. We need these to keep us all connected as Nicole and Kurtis get older... Teens are very hard to raise and you have to keep the communication open, even when they're rolling their eyes and huffing and puffing over your expectations of them...as minor as that may be. By the end of the meeting everyone was smiling and we always end with each of us saying something nice about the other. We read some poems and verses from our Little Acorn Learning curriculum. It truly warmed my heart.
