Christmas at the Promise House
| December 24th, 2007So what does Christmas at the Promise House look like? Well, right now it looks empty. It’s Christmas Eve and all the girls in our care left early this morning with their families. They aren’t due back until 9pm.
Holidays are tricky around here. Never do we miss those we love more than during the holidays. When you have a houseful of hormonal pregnant teenagers missing their families you’ve got the potential for a Code Red Meltdown.
Despite the dangers, we will celebrate Christmas tomorrow. The key: Activity. We will keep them busy. A big breakfast, followed by present opening, followed by playing with presents, followed by lunch, followed by a movie, followed by Christmas light watching . . . you get the picture.
Speaking of Christmas lights . . . there’s this guy in North Little Rock . . . well, I’ll just put up another post.
Post like this one always tug at those strings around my heart.
