Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

25 Days of Christmas

A couple of years ago my mom did a 25 days of Christmas binder that had a cute little story and a coloring page for each day in December before Christmas. Well, I liked the idea, only saw it once (detrimentally seeing that they had already colored half the pictures and NO COPIES!). Now (since I've sort of finished my last project) I'm doing a booklet for the 25 days of Christmas. I've got about 10 days worth of stuff so far. Of course I want to do the normal "church approved" stuff, so if you have any great ideas, send them my way! I have coloring pages (mostly from the friend), reenactment ideas, and pictures to color, cut and laminate. And yes, I start thinking about Christmas early. Which reminds me, if you're reading this and I (or any of my family) have your name (or your family's) for Christmas, What do you want? (Nathan, this includes you :) Anyway, look at my fhe blog to find the 25 days of Christmas that I have done. If you have a fun, fun, fun idea to add, let me know.
