Lots of Christmas Ideas

It's so easy for us women to become overwhelmed at this time of the year, convincing ourselves that we have to do it all!  You may want to step back and take a minute to observe the big picture of Christmastime in your home.   Please realize that by my giving you lots of Christmas ideas, I am not saying you should do everything - nor a fourth of these ideas.  These are simply ideas from which to chose the best possibilities for your family, as we all remember the "Reason for the Season" - Jesus, and sharing His love with family, friends and strangers.  These are all more important than a perfectly decorated home with lots of gifts under the tree! 

You will find Christ-centered ideas  for celebrating Jesus' birthday, as well as many gift ideas to make and give on a budget.

Rather than sending the eight Christmas newsletters from the past again this year, or taking extra space in this newsletter, I'm passing on these Heart to Heart links (below), now that the two Heart to Heart blogs have been in operation for almost a year.  How well I remember last year at this time, working feverishly as I learned how to do a blog with the help from friends, and posted so much information to the two  blogs!  The links are always shown below the heading of this newsletter, by the way.  I hope you will all check them out and give me your feedback.
