I have known about them for a long time. (Really quite some time, I had gotten a set when we girls were little ~ they are 14 and 11 now) I had seen the Advent Calendar on the site but wasn't too sure about it... then,

The morning is typical Tennessee winter weather. Starts out quite cold but as the sun has come up it has warmed up nicely. If you call the 40s warm... Today is an odd day. I should be enjoying the finishing touches on Christmas decorating and addressing Christmas cards. Instead I am up tight. This year we are having a difficult go.

God provides our job, God provides all of our needs. When things get rough we should already be looking to Him.

All this economy stuff is just really causing alot of people headaches and worries. It really does shock you into reality about credit and finances doesn't it?
