I'm incredibly proud of my children and how every year they are so easily satisfied with the simple Christmas gifts they are given. Not one complaint has come out of their mouths, only gratitude. Our foster children have handled everything quite well too. I'm so glad.
One of the major highlights of my weekend has been the traditional Rawlin's Family Christmas Talent Show, held every 23rd of December at Joseph's sister, Merrit's house. All of the nine children from my husband's family fly into town to be together and everyone performs on Merrit's stage. If anyone can't make it, they join us through Skype. It's a huge get-together and is SO much fun!!
The second highlight of these last few days was to have my dear friend, Adrienne, and her family join us for making gingerbread houses. Twelve children, tons of candy, and lots of hard frosting made for a really BIG mess... but it was worth it!
Enjoy this new Christmas song, let the light of Christ shine through you, and make Christmas Everyday!!!
