Today I walked to our nearby town center with my daughter and neighbor. Sunshine, patches of white snow, red berry bushes, frisky squirrels – these are just a few amazing things we noticed. Green wreaths trimmed with red bows, twinkling lights peeking from picture windows – reminders to me that the world celebrates the birth of Christ during these days. What are you noticing as you look around?
I am appreciative to everyone who comes here each week to share, to visit, to be encourage. That’s what Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop is all about! Last week’s most viewed post was Lazy Days of Learning from Our Unschooling Journey. I hope you enjoy reading through this reminder that life happens, learning happens, there’s no need to force it.
As reminders to slow down and savor, stop and soak in the beauty around you, I am featuring the following posts:
- Christmas Crafting with Dried Oranges from Comfort Spring Station.
- DIY Ice Luminaries from Sew Historically.
- Favorite Christmas Books from Jennifer Lambert.
Merry Christmas to you all!
