Wrapping Up Her Love

Yesterday, Emily and I were talking about how close Christmas is. She said she wanted to wrap a present for Jesus since it was His birthday. I told her it couldn't be a regular present like a toy because she couldn't actually give Him something like that. I told her that obeying Mommy and Daddy was a gift she could give Jesus. A little bit later I saw her folding some tissue paper into a square. I asked her what she was doing. She said "I'm wrapping up my love to give it to Jesus." I was so proud and happy to see that she can understand such things.

Snowflakes (photos)

Here are some photos of snowflakes that I took on my back porch. I wish I could get them to be more clear. I will keep trying. Enjoy these first attempts. :)
