Greetings of Yuletide Cheer, my friends! We're smack in the middle of Christmas merriment around here, but paused to bring you this look at some fascinating holiday traditions from around the world. If you've ever wondered what a cat, goat, demon, cousin Eddie, and horse skeleton have in common, then you'll enjoy this one. We pull it all together and tie a nice, festive bow around it!  We are both looking forward to celebrating Christmas this year, trying to focus on slowing down, reflecting, truly enjoying, and worshipping. We're linking some advent devotionals below and hope you'll find time to use these resources or others to set a grateful tone your lives this December.  Merry Christmas! <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Waiting-Here-You-Advent-Journey/dp/1949255115" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Waiting Here For You</a> by Louie Giglio <a href= "https://melanie-shankle.myshopify.com/collections/all">Waiting on Wonder</a> by Melanie Shankle <a href= "https://kaylacraig.substack.com/p/your-free-advent-download-is-ready"> To Light Their Way: Finding Simple Joy and Wonder in Advent</a> by Kayla Craig
