So, where do we even begin?
The most important? This is the FIRST Sunday of Advent!
Today's candle represents HOPE. We will light the first Purple candle today.
Today's scripture verse reads :
"And behold, thou shalt...bring forth a son, and shalt call his name, Jesus" Luke 1:31
Yesterday, we were in shock by how kind you are to your family. We couldn't believe that both of you went shopping, and picked out presents for your family members from your hearts. That's what Christmas is all about. Showing your love for those who mean the most, and reminding them of how much they mean to you.
We think we have the best kids in the world, and we are not just saying that because you're ours. But it's the truth. You both spend so much time thinking of ways to make others happy, creating crafts for people who are sad, and always coming up with little ways to remind Mom and Dad how much you love them.
Yes, you both can get crazy and rowdy, but, we are so very blessed to have you both as our Elfkins. (That means you are the Kids of us Elves!)
We snuck a peek yesterday while you were doing your gingerbread houses... and Mom is VERY smart to have covered them because there is no way we could have resisted eating them!!! There is every favorite candy of an elf on there. YUM!
And those cookies you both created with Mom? Unbelievable. I think you will be able to help mom with her cookie business before we know it!
Make sure to light your candle and say your prayers with your parents today! It's such a special time!
