Boy Get Crafty. Mother and daughter. Money as You Grow – Kids and Money – President's Advisory Council on Financial Capability. The Gaines Gang: To Theme or Not To Theme? That seems to always be the question. People often decide on a Christmas “theme” to decorate their home in. For me all I can think of is when people used to ask me “Do you have a "theme" for your nursery?” Um….NO! I guess you can say Christmas has a bit of a “theme” it’s the biggest Birthday Party of the year. A time to rejoice in God sending His one and only son to die for {insert your name here}! So, my Christmas “theme” is and will always be family. When we decorate our tree “a family theme” unwrapping each ornament takes me back to that time in place when our family was together. I started with Hannah’s 1st Christmas. Hand ornaments… There is one for each year of my child’s life up till the age of 5 years old {when their growing really started to slow down}.
They are so simple to make. Some years I got really carried away and did other “hand” Christmas gifts. This was my sons first Christmas and at two months old tracing his hand was not going to work. Elliemoon.typepad.com/ Kid Stuff / Good paint project!
