It was always our tradition to try and bring that first nativity to life in our own front room. It was fun to improvise and bring a portion of that Holy night to life. If youโ€™re seeing this and have also had a tradition, please share it whether itโ€™s a photo or textโ€”it would be fun to hear about your point of view.
โ€œA Tabby Catโ€™s Christmas Wish: The Gift of Helpingโ€ is available at:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/1734725141 Enjoy the Spirit of this glorious Season!

Loverboyโ€™s favorite time of the year is Christmas. This year he wants to give the gift of helping others. But when he tries, no one seems to want his help. . .until he meets a very special Christmas baby.

One of my favorite quotes is a simple line from C.S. Lewis`s "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" (part of the Chronicles of Narnia series)... it says: "๐‘ช๐’๐’–๐’“๐’‚๐’ˆ๐’† ๐’…๐’†๐’‚๐’“ ๐’‰๐’†๐’‚๐’“๐’•." Very simple and Very powerful. "Chubbs: Blind Cat Learns to Trust "with its Coloring/Activity Book, and "Teddy: A Boy who Swam with Angels" are good sources for young readers to learn about faith, trust, hope, miracles and courage...

Presents are fun and exciting! But adding a gift that could bless a child and help them learn to appreciate how God shows up for them, the miracles all around us, having faith and trust and courage...well, those are gifts of a lifetime!

Consider how these stories could bless you and your kids. They`d also make great stocking stuffers! ๐ŸŽ„

At this year`s boutique, I had the pleasure of meeting these lovely girls. They were having a lot of fun exploring all the shopping possibilities, and I was thrilled they spent time with me--listening to the back stories of both Chubbs and Teddy. Even with all the competing interests at this event, they responded positively to these inspirational and faith based true stories--imagining the miracles it took for Teddy to return safely to his family, speaking to their hearts, which warmed mine.

Learning to recognize miracles helps anyone learn to appreciate how God shows up in our often ordinary lives...

Literally blind, Chubbs must learn how to navigate her dark world by trusting Grandma Sandy. Although we can`t see God, we can learn to trust that He will help us navigate the ups and downs of our lives.

Summer`s over and hopefully you`ve spent some quality time doing something fun, restorative or maybe you went on an honest to goodness adventure!

Ryan went with Teddy on an adventure of a life-time. Here`s what he has to say about his experience.

Here`s an interview with Ryan--age 9...

Q: Hey Ryan, what did you like about Teddyโ€™s story?
A: It`s the best book I`ve ever read. And the illustrations were so great!

Q: What did you learn from Teddyโ€™s experience?
A: Not to go off on my own without telling someone where Iโ€™m going.

Q: What was the scariest thing that happened on Teddyโ€™s unexpected adventure?
A: He floated for a long time by himself and there was a giant fish, and fast water, and he almost gave up.

Q: How did Heavenly Father look out for Teddy?
A: He sent whispers and people to help him get back to his family. And He was always thereโ€”keeping him calm, so he could keep trying.

Q: If your best friend hasnโ€™t read Teddyโ€™s story yetโ€”what would you tell him?
A: Itโ€™s a story about a 9 year old boy who went on a picnic with his family and accidentally fell into the river. Seeing how Teddy stayed calm during all the scariest parts made me want to be calm. It helped me to know Heavenly Father watches out for me and everyone.

Q: What else would you like to say about Teddy: A Boy who Swam with Angels?
A: Put it in every single libraryโ€” so everybody can read it!

Thanks Ryan for sharing what you learned from Teddy`s experience.

This is an inspirational, true, faith based adventure story that anyone of any age can enjoy. It is a story of miracles showing readers how God showed up for a young boy who was literally in over his head.

Teddy`s survival of his many challenges and difficulties that day can inspire others to become aware of how God shows up for them.

Q: What did you learn from Teddyโ€™s experience?
A: Not to go off on my own without telling someone where Iโ€™m going.

Q: What was the scariest thing that happened on Teddyโ€™s unexpected adventure?
A: He floated for a long time by himself and there was a giant fish, and fast water, and he almost gave up.

Q: How did Heavenly Father look out for Teddy?
A: He sent whispers and people to help him get back to his family. And He was always thereโ€”keeping him calm, so he could keep trying.

Q: If your best friend hasnโ€™t read Teddyโ€™s story yetโ€”what would you tell him?
A: Itโ€™s a story about a 9 year old boy who went on a picnic with his family and accidentally fell into the river. Seeing how Teddy stayed calm during all the scariest parts made me want to be calm. It helped me to know Heavenly Father watches out for me and everyone.

Q: What else would you like to say about Teddy: A Boy who Swam with Angels?
A: Put it in every single libraryโ€” so everybody can read it!

Thanks Ryan for sharing what you learned from Teddy`s experience.

This is an inspirational, true, faith based adventure story that anyone of any age can enjoy. It is a story of miracles showing readers how God showed up for a young boy who was literally in over his head.

Teddy`s survival of his many challenges and difficulties that day can inspire others to become aware of how God shows up for them.

School`s out. . . Do you have a vacation planned? Or maybe you`re heading off to a well loved destination? Or maybe a "stay-cation"? Don`t forget that a story can transport the reader to places they`ve never been, doing things they`ve never done.

Here are some recommendations for your kids that I couldn`t put down:

Each of these books tells a timeless story of being brave, finding courage, having faith, enduring hardship and in most cases choosing to do the right thing. I loved each story--and I read some of them many times. Your middle grader will enjoy the journey!
