I have been busy, out of town, sick, you name it. I’m also behind.
For the past several years I do something for my kids and their families for Advent. I call it Christmas Wishes. Throughout the year I collect little things: some of them are free, some are edible, some are just a few cents, and some are a real gift. Each item goes into a lunch bag. I make labels with the numbers 1-24 and use them to seal the bags.
Each person opens their bag on the numbered day for a little treat.
These are last year’s bags.
Packed up and ready to go
I just finished bagging everything today.
It’s the 1st of December.
And these still need to be mailed.
They’re going to be late.
