12/20/11Today’s advent activity was Donate. Since Serenity still loves being an animal rescuer, I thought she’d like adopting an animal. We went to the World Wildlife Fund online and I let her choose an animal from the list to adopt. It was a great chance to talk to her about helping the environment. She chose a Walrus, which was kind of a surprise to me as I didn’t know she liked them, but she was very determined in her choice.
The rest of the day was pretty laid back. I had been thwarted the previous evening in my crafting activities when I realized I’d bought the wrong ink cartridge for my printer and so couldn’t work on Donovan’s Christmas present, and then I couldn’t get the stain container opened to work on Casey’s moose. So today, Serenity, Donovan and I went to Target and Lowe’s to get supplies. So tonight, assuming Donovan stays asleep, I am going into craft mode! Five days to Christmas, there’s nothing like a deadline to get me going =)
