My sweet Reuben helping to pick out the "perfect" tree. I depend so much on this great boy to lead his brothers and sisters and to help me. He is truly my right hand man. He is so talented and kind. He is growing up. He is falling in love with reading and his skills are improving immensely.

We chose our tree for the season! It was Daddy's choice, this year, to have a flocked tree...Oh my, does it sparkle in our home! We love it and we had a great time at the lot picking it out and seeing all the beautiful trees. We welcome in the Christmas season with joy! Now to only stay on task with our work! Help us, Almighty God, to be focused and not so scatterbrained!
