Advent and December


We have entered that special time of the year called Advent. Awaiting the full celebration of the birth of Christ. Reflecting on how God in his might, showed his true character in a little child. He did not come as a rich and mighty king. He came as a vulnerable, small and helpless little boy, who entered the world in the animal barn.
Marc is giving math exams at school today. When he gets home, I will feed him some new baked bread and then we will go for a little bike ride. It has finally stopped raining today.. Rain has kept us off the bike for over a week.
Leo and Sara have started sleeping season, which means that they spend about 20 hours per day sleeping by a heat source. At times I kick them out for a while. My chickens are still on egg strike. Probably due to lack of daylight. I have threatened the two older hens that they will become soup if they do not give me eggs.. But they are just pecking away at the feed I give them and ignoring my threats.
