Advent is Here!

            I’m back…took an unexpected haitus…I’ve been preparing for a re-branding of my business–which includes this blog to better reflect the work that I love…
educating about healthy relationships and coaching those ready to do the work of building and nourishing a great relationship!

            So, when it’s all said and done, I’ll make sure to blog about the details so you can check it all out!

            On a different note, I’m so delighted to with the arrival of the Advent season! This is my favorite time of the year, it truly is. There is a recurring problem I seem to have each year…finding purple candles. Everything in the marketplace is red, white, and green–Christmas colors. It’s as if there is no Advent season at all.

            Somehow Advent is getting lost in the commercial side of the holiday season and if we’re not careful we will too. Most of life’s most precious events require some preparation. Advent is such an important time in a family because it allows us to prepare for Christmas–in our heart, our mind, our soul…. In our family this preparation helps us to unpack more than decorations for the tree and the house–it really helps us reflect on reasons for celebrating Christmas–our reason being the commemoration and celebration of the birth of Christ the Lord–the one we know as Emmanuel, or more simply–our God who is truly with us in the day-to-day realities of our life.

           Well that’s really all I wanted to say. I wish you renewed hope, love, and unmatched peace during this beautiful Advent season….
