Christmas Gifts

  This Christmas we have been especially challenged.  We spend so much money on ourselves, on things we don’t really need, and we can so easily change someone’s life by buying them a cow, or some chickens, or even donating some money to feed a baby for a week that might otherwise die.  We’re still giving each other gifts this Christmas, but we’re also giving others some gifts–gifts that mean much much more.  Plus, the little girls *love* picking things out for children across the world 😀  They’ve always loved children of different nationalities and now they are excited to give them something!

Gospel for Asia’s Gift Catalog  {this website has some videos you can watch}

Advent Conspiracy  {so does this one}

Noah and Isaiah were watching Jessica as she cut up the turkey for Thanksgiving dinner.  Isaiah asked, “Is it a he or a her?”

Jessica said she didn’t know. Then Isaiah said, ” I think the turkeys are he’s and the chickens are her’s”. 😀

Then Isaiah replied, “and people go, “hey, you look good!”

In case you were wondering where he get’s such ideas…he’s quoting Wayne on Fireproof…oh dear!

Isaiah was switching the light on and off and the light wasn’t really needed.  Noah said, “Isaiah’s wasting battery!”
