Jeremy has finished his Masters! I can't tell you how relieved both of us are! And as we walked across the stage, Dr. Moore actually gave him a fist-bump. And if he ever goes back to school for another degree, it won't be any time soon :)
The kids are ready for Christmas...and we are not at all ready to move! Isabel thinks it's Christmas every day, and if you try and take her picture, she holds her arms out and yells, "Merry Christmas!" She's handling the packing very well. We keep telling her that even though we're packing her toys away (or getting rid of them!), she has new special toys to open on Christmas morning! I think it's the grace of God that we're moving around Christmas. Now we have an excuse to hide, store, or just sell the toys we don't use right now! Now if we could just get everything else packed, we might actually be prepared to move!
We've been debating what to tell Isabel when she asks about Santa. She keeps telling us she wants to go see him. We've never really wanted to do the whole Santa thing with our kids, so we've been telling her, "Christmas is not about Santa or presents or pretty trees and decorations. Christmas is about Jesus!" So I pray that anyone who reads this will remember the same. I pray that the joy of your salvation fills your home this Christmas! And if you don't know Christ, there's no better time than right now to acknowledge Him as Lord.
