Advent begins
December is here, and we got out the advent boxes!
Sofía insisted on opening each one to make sure we didn’t forget any candy in there from before. (As if I would let her eat a piece of year-old candy, anyway).
This year they are filled with crafty things like stickers (we’re going to make a sticker book that she can decorate as we go along) and wooden shapes she can paint and glue sparkles onto and hang as ornaments. I might slip in a piece or two of her leftover Halloween chocolate too … and whaddaya wanna bet she likes that better? -laugh-
Here’s a post on how I made them from tea tins, Christmas paper, stickers, and mod-podge.

Yay! I’d forgotten how beautful and ingenious they are!
(You craft-monster, you!)
