One thing about Advent activities: it translates to a lot of “moments” with your children. Moments like feeding goats, camels, and a wildebeest (I kid you not):
Moments like watching my son ride a camel:
Or how about getting to share a brand new baby cousin with them?
Then there are the ubiquitous pictures with Santa…
(Incidentally, Alex’s visit to Santa required a massive rethinking of our finished Christmas shopping. Harumph!)
And as the other kids explored the model train and build-a-bear and remote control cars and shooting galleries all around Santa, Julianna (characteristically) just wanted to walk. Right back to Santa, who got half a dozen cute, giggly waves out of her before the night was over.
How about you? Do you have any motherhood (or fatherhood) moments to share today?

Your kids are beautiful! My moment yesterday…my son’s pre-school X-mas show. He didn’t sing one note in his bug debut but he DID call out “Momma!” “My mommy is here!” with a huge smile at random intervals throughout the performance. He also chucked his jingle bells into the audience, but in a charming way 🙂 I love your snow, BTW…very high tech!!
oops meant “big” bot “bug”, although some people might have been “bugged” by the flying bells LOL!
wow…it’s too early…I can’t spell at all..BOT…time to head to the bus stop!!
You crack me up! That’s a great mommy moment. Thanks for sharing!
Simply beautiful pictures! Or maybe your kids are just cute…
Well, obviously! 😉
