Tomorrow we’ll be celebrating Thanksgiving with my parents, some other relatives and my grandparents, who are in their 80s. I’m so blessed that they are still with us! We’ll be eating lots of yummy food and our kids will even have a little poem they’ll read for the fam. :)
I’ll be taking the rest of the weekend off here at The Purposeful Mom (I may update the Facebook page and/or my blog with some great Black Friday deals!).
I’ll be busy preparing our supplies for the Truth in the Tinsel crafts and putting the finishing touches on my first eBook! It’s called God’s Word in My Heart: A Scripture Learning Guide with Memory Verses and I’m planning to release it mid-January!! More on that later :)
Some highlights regarding what’s been happening here at the blog in November:

Have a very blessed Thanksgiving! I am so thankful to the Lord for all of His abundant blessings to us! Praying you can take some time to reflect on your blessings each day. See you soon for the start of Truth in the Tinsel!
