advent season.

It's advent season. 


Part of me feels like I just want to get through this season and another part of me wants to try to make it special for Cole.  So I've decided to make a list of stuff I would like to do this month.
I  am also giving myself grace to say no to any activities that feel overwhelming or if I'm not having a good day.  I'm not making a schedule just a list of some fun things I want to try during this month.

 
Pick out a Christmas tree
Decorate the tree/house
Watch Boz Christmas video
Play with our Little People nativity
Go to Fantasy of Trees
