Luke 2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

GG & Mommy & Me – p. 6 Publishers Page – p. 3 Table of Contents – p. 3

Praise to almighty God! It is Christmas time again. Thank you God for the gift of your son Jesus Christ.

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Christmas is a time of giving. But I wish it were a stress-free time of the year. I wish our focus were more about spending time together instead of spending the dollar. I love giving gifts, don’t get me wrong. I’m just saying that if we focus on giving instead of receiving we might find peace. There is a true gift found in giving to others. My wish and prayer this year is for peace on earth!

Years ago we started a tradition in our family that works well. Every other year we forgo the multiple gifts under the tree and we go on a trip for a few days. This tradition has created some of the best memories ever. Enjoy fellowship with family and friends and most important remember that Jesus is the reason for the season In this issue: Merry Christmas!

Our advertisers are ready to help you with every little detail during this wonderful time of year. Please take a look at the products, programs and services that our advertisers are offering this Christmas season In our next Issue: Happy New Year 2016 It is never too early to start setting goals and working toward success in the coming year.

We are looking forward to the continued growth of this awesome “little magazine with the big reach”.

Combine nature and crafts with this sweet gum pod mouse craft.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED: • Sweet gum pod/ball with stem, dried • Acorn hat or button for face • 2 (5mm) wiggle eyes • low-temp glue gun or tacky glue • 2 small brown pom-poms for ears and one tiny pink one for a nose (or cut a larger one down to the size you like) • Dried pine needles • Slice of dead tree branch or other piece of wood for base (about ½ inch thick and 2 inches across) • Red pom-poms for earmuffs and red ribbon for bow HOW TO MAKE IT: • Glue two acorn tops to the base upside down to help hold your gumball in place.

• Glue the gumball to the base with the acorn tops in front and with the stem sticking out. The stem will be the tail.

• Glue the face to the other end of the gumball, at a slight angle for the head.

• Glue the wiggle eyes on the face and then the brown pom-poms for the ears.

• Cut the dried pine needles to the desired size and glue on for the whiskers.
