Today at Garden Club our devotional was about the reader’s 12 Joys of Christmas. Mary challenged us to go home and tap out our own 12 joys. What are some of your joys of Christmas?
1. Online shopping. I am claustrophobic, so malls, Walmart, and such are not an option.
2. Having my children home for 2 weeks–really. I love the down time, staying up late and having their friends over.
3. Â My mother spending Christmas night with us to watch the kids open their gifts.
4. The Aunt Fannie ball.
5. The Rudolph decoration from my childhood.
6. Decorating my front door.
7. Â Placing the manger figures at our church then covering the stable with fresh greens.
8. Â Mass and all the incense.
9. Â Going to the farm for a day or two and sitting in front of the fireplace.
10. Preparing for SPRING!
11. Marianna
