Holiday traffic is usually not an issue. We go to a museum, etc., while everyone else is out shopping. :-)

We have an Advent wreath and light the appropriate candles each night at our devotion time. We also have a cloth figure/pocket Nativity Advent calendar that allows us to celebrate Advent with characters from Christ's birth rather than candy or other…

Who here has a child with a food allergy?

My son is allergic to peanuts as well, and we're awaiting test results to see if an allergy to something else is responsible for his continual eczema. My daughter was allergic to eggs but outgrew th…

How do you celebrate birthdays that come up during the holidays?

I have four children. Three of their birthdays are in January and the other is in December. Instead of big parties, which are difficult to schedule in those months anyway, we do two things for each…
