Getting ready..........


The month of December, my housemate and assistant, Jenny, was in the US on furlough. That, along with preparing for Christmas had me hopping! Ioana returned to work, after maternity leave, so Daria began to come stay at the team house around 3 days a week. It was a rough adjustment for her, leaving Mommy, but we made it. Though we were all occasionally exhausted!




Decorating the Team house is has become a tradition.  We get a tree and Ruthie puts the star up.  Then we decorate, watch a Christmas movie, and have a slumber party.  Our tree, this year, was an interesting shape!  But it grew on me!

We did a lot of baking, assembling, and packing presents.  With all of our kids, plus the directors and staff in the locations we work in, there is PLENTY to do!


Melissa and Ruthie are baking.  Everyone gets to help out to get everything done!


We also attend Christmas programs at the orphanages.  Romanians love their poems!


Parties, Parties, Parties!

 


Ready or Not Christmas is here!
