As I prepare this week’s Encouraging Hearts & Home blog hop I am relaxing with my feet up, watching A Christmas Carol with my family. I ask myself, which Spirit of Christmas might be visiting me tonight? What will be my response? Am I too old or unwilling to change? I pray the Joy of the Lord fills my heart, my home, my family. What is your wish this Christmas?
Last week I shared one of our family’s fun traditions at our linky party, and The Bay Leaf, A Family Tradition was the most viewed post. That’s exciting! It’s a rather silly tradition, but I insist on keeping it alive.
I chose the Christmas Tree as my theme for featured posts this week:
- Christmas Tree in Chaos because it’s fun to visit the festivities and traditions of other families!
- A Very Merry Coastal Christmas Tree because we now live so close to the coast I can almost taste the sea air!
- 20 Christmas Ornament Crafts for Kids because I collect ideas and these are clever!
And Now, for This Week’s Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop!
