We have a new visitor in our house this Advent season. The kids found a package at the front door yesterday and they found an angel in a box with her reason for being there and what she has planned for them. She has a verse that we are to read and a activity. I took it a step further and added a special assignment for the Andrew and Anna to complete during the day. It could be something like paying a compliment to someone to helping someone in need out.
While I think the Elf on the Shelf is cute, I really wanted something that focused on the reason we celebrate this season and to give of ourselves everyday. Andrew and Anna have enjoyed this new addition to the Advent season.
How fun. This is exactly the kind of affirmation I've prayed for you. I shared this with Brenda. She very much enjoyed it too!
