“… thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the
Son of the Highest.”  source

I absolutely ADORE this picture! This is Brooklyn, the daughter of Amy from Increasingly Domestic. I love her sweet face and those freckles! SO CUTE!! This sweet picture actually brought tears to my eyes because I could literally see what Mary must have looked like. Angelic, sweet, innocent, kind, tender, precious. This picture is priceless!

The Christmas Star

The Star of Bethlehem led the wise men to the Christ Child. It was a heavenly sign of promise years ago. God promised a Savior for the world, and the star was a sign of the fulfillment of that promise.

The Legend of the Christmas Star

A diamond shines no brighter
Than that lovely Christmas star,
It shines in all its brilliance;
It’s seen from near or far.
A symbol of the Christ child
As He lay upon the hay,
It tells to all the waiting world
A King was born that day.

O’ Bethlehem Star keep shining –
Give us faith and hope and love.
Keep our thoughts forever turning
To the Savior up above.
Give us strength and hope and courage
To do our best by far
And never falter in our faith
As we watch that Christmas star.

Once There Was a Snowman....

 Does the title of this post ring a bell with anyone? I think it's probably one of the most popular primary songs YEAR ROUND! Snowmen are so fun to decorate with, craft with, eat, and play with! They are all around just F-U-N.
