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.
