Advent-day 13

Last night we had dinner with friends from the school our children attend-it was a great night of fellowship. We even exchanged gifts-my first time participating in a white elephant gift exchange-very fun. So another late night, but we did get to our evening reading when we got home. Our reading was from John, John 1:11-18. My favorite verse from this passage is "The Word became a human being. He made His home with us. We have seen His glory. It is the glory of the one and only Son"~verse 14.
After our reading the I read the girls a story from Richard Scarry's The Animals Merry Christmas. They fell right to sleep as I was reading. I love the illustrations in this book, (which I think I purchased two years ago) we also have this book, a wonderful book of poems about winter.
Leftover chicken pot pie is for dinner, I'm feeling pretty exhausted today-more sleep and a megavitamin should help for tomorrow.

Hope you all had a great Monday!
