Oh, come now, you guys are making me want to run home a get it so when I'm wide awake in a hotel room at 4:30 am I have something to do...thank goodness for these boards and wi-fi! Anyway, I usually have post-vacation stress disorder...the piles of laundry, the beginning of advent, trying to restart a routine, the Christmas preparation backlog...but not this year...because Christmas Mosaic will be waiting to gently pull me back into the heart of my home for advent. What a gift we have been given!

Thank you ladies for your comments . . . and your patience with me! As of tomorrow I will be caught up with ALL orders! Yippee! just in time to bake and sweep for Thanksgiving.
I have so much to be thankful for!!! As a dear friend of mine always says, "My cup overfloweth!"
Sorry about the bolding error in the booklist. Please email me at Hillside if you want a pdf of the correct list (or copy the one Cay put up in this topic). It has already been corrected in the book, so some of you will be getting a book with the bolds intact.
Blessings to all
and Thanks Again
Margot

We got our book last week! What a treat! Opening the book brought back those feelings I get when I start pulling out our Christmas decorations ... pure joy! Thank you so much Cay and Margot! I am so excited.

I received mine last night - I love it!! Found it hard to put down - what can I say but awesome awesome awesome.
Cay - my kids think it is cool that a "famous author" has autographed my copy. They all fought to read it when the mail came - I had to remind them that I have first rights to read it!!!!

I bought and borrowed some of the books from the booklist, how do you set the books out, all at one time, on a rotation, or just little by little?

OK, I didn't even make it throught the FIRST PAGE and I was already in tears! It's Great, great, great!.
Then a bit later, the story about Paw-paw had me bawling too. Glad to hear I'm not the only one.

I use the weekly themes used by Cay. Last week we did the preparation books - I decided which ones we were doing as read alouds and the rest I set out on the coffee table and the book rack for the kids to read independently.
I am just planning next week - the "giving" week and doing the same. I have a lot of books from the library and have bought a few for the kids. I try to plan my baking and crafts in advance - to make sure they happen.
My 3 year old begged me to read "Santa's favorite story" today - for some reason this book really got to me - I love it - and my husband has had to read it to the younger ones at least twice more!
