It has been one wild Fall for us..…{ OK for me }
I keep telling people that I feel like I got on a ride in September that still has not stopped …. !
{ I even got my first grey hair ! }
BUT with our first term report card session now complete, - phew- Bless my teacher !!
We can now focus on!!
DECEMBER ~ !
Oh how we love December and Christmas here at the Abbeys house!
I am passionate about Advent !
{ You can read about it in last years blog post }
…we really focus our kids on giving at Christmas Time and SO this year to give …. first in line is
This little lady OF OURS

WHO …….is going to cut off allll
her hair !!! -
to her ears !!!–
before Christmas …
to raise money for our new orphanage in Mexico that we are sponsoring this year !
We are all learning Spanish here at Abbey Academy this year {even DAD} and hope to be able to go and visit the orphanage over the next few years for Christmas, as a family missions trip!
Miss Grade 2 has been growing her hair for three years to do this fundraiser ! And is Sooooo excited that she raised $30 dollars at church yesterday, for the little kids who don’t have Moms and Dads!
We were talking about how that could feed five babies dinner for a whole week !
It is such a gift to see her eyes sparkle at that thought… she is a little mother hen and like her mommy has a soft spot for babies:)
She is donating her hair to be made as a wig for cancer patients too.

{ I am thinking I might have a wig made for myself out of those goldilocks !!}
Let us know if you would like to sponsor her fundraising effort!
