As my personal Christmas tradition continues, I’ve adopted a family’s children and taken them Christmas shopping for their parents. I did this last year with the Pastor’s children (3) and this year I added 2 more little ones from Capricorn that have been near and dear to my heart this year. I picked them all up at 11am, we went straight to the beach for some fun and a picnic, home for showers and dinner and to the big mall downtown for shopping and watching the Christmas crowds, then again home for a movie and bed! I was exhausted and I think they were too. We woke up the next morning, had breakfast, finished the movie that they all fell asleep to the night before, made Christmas ornaments, wrapped their parents gifts that they’d purchased, played outside and went home around 12 noon the next day. I never knew 24 hours with 5 children could be so difficult yet so much fun.
