Christmas is a wonderful reminder to focus on Joy. Everyday is a time to find joy in the journey, to focus on the joys of all that we are blessed with and to parent with joy. Christmas hones that focus for me every single year. It’s like a reset. As my daughter says, we start the day after Thanksgiving – baking, decorating, coloring pictures, celebrating Advent and basically enjoying the journey together more than any other month of the year as we focus on the birth of Christ and the blessings he has given us. But sometimes, as a mom, Joy is hard. Especially at this time of year. So this is a list of unique gifts for moms who need joy.

One of the ways I bring that focus on Joy into our lives is through our Christmas decorations, music and books that showcase Joy. I have been collecting ornaments, wall-hangings, pillows, jewelry, and everything JOY or REJOICE for several years. I get a few more Joy ornaments or decorations every single year. I’ve already bought one ornament and one sign from Hobby Lobby this year, and it isn’t even Thanksgiving yet! They are tangible reminders when I am tempted to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life. They bring a smile to my face. I have linked to some of my favorites and some on my wish list for you here. Perhaps you know someone who needs a little reminder to find the Joy in God’s gifts this year.

This is my heart. These are things I would love to receive as a Mom, a woman, a child of God. My prayer is that the Christmas Joy gift guide will be a blessing to you as you search for that perfect gift to speak life into the heart of someone you love. A gift for moms who need joy.

What do you focus on during the Christmas season? Have you considered focusing on JOY? Everything about the season - decorations, baking, celebrating Advent - can point you and your family to JOY in the Lord. Take a look at our gift guide to help you speak life into the heart of someone in need of Christmas JOY this year.

    As we don’t live anywhere near “family” we usually just have a small family time together. If we know of any friends not having anywhere to go then we invite them over to join us. Small and simple usually works well.

    We celebrate Advent with devotions. We do a lot of baking, singing, wrapping, and decorating. Also, our church does activities for the community all month long, so lots of service opportunities!
