Welcome to Wire Talk. Today we are wrapping up our series on Advent, and I don't know about you,

but I have personally really enjoyed this time together. Today we're going to be talking about love

and who doesn't need love during the holidays, especially an extra dose of love. So let's get to it.

Welcome to Wire Talk, where we encourage and equip moms by answering practical

questions about motherhood. We want to help instill God's truth in your heart so you can experience

more joy and peace on your journey of motherhood. Are you ready for some truth? Let's dive in.

Well, hello everybody and welcome to Wiretalk. I'm Emily, your host, and with me, like always, is my mom. Hello, Mom. Hello, I see you got your glasses on today. I do have my glasses on today. It's been a great week, but it's been a long week. And my head, it just kind of hurts. And so I just feel like when I wear my glasses and I'm looking at iPads, sometimes it makes me like my eyes get tired. Oh, yeah. So I'm just wearing them for extra precaution. Makes total sense. I like them. Are those new? They are new. I lost my other glasses. So there you go. And then I went to go. Grayson actually had to get glasses. Grayson is my five-year-old.

And this past August, right after having Ellie, we realized that he needed glasses.

So he got new glasses, I got new glasses.

So it was all exciting.

Everybody got new glasses.

But thank you.

So I don't enjoy wearing them all the time.

But I'm wearing them today and it's good. And it's going to hopefully help my head not from starting to hurt. I'm sorry. That's okay, Mom. I hate headaches. Listen, I know, but also I have a little one. And so she didn't sleep great last night. So I'm just a little tired. Yeah. So you need some coffee? Do we need to pause and you go get you a cup of coffee?

No, because then sometimes I feel like when I drink coffee, it's like, and they don't want to hear that. They didn't want to hear that noise either. That's hilarious. So anyways, moving right along. Well, I don't know. This has been fun banter for me. It has been fun banter. But you look really pretty in your Christmas sparkled red. Well, I chose red today because, and red sparkles, because you know, sparkles are

better. But I just chose it for, it's today, December 23rd. It's our last of our Christmas

podcast talking about Advent. Yes. So, and we're going to be talking about love. So we've got Christmas.

We were talking about love.

So I need to wear red.

Okay, before we get started, I'm going to ask you a question.

What is something that you wish you would have done when all of us were still in the house?

Like, was there something that you wish you would have paused or, like, put more on your calendar or taking less out of the calendar? Like, what is something that you wish that you would have, like, just embraced a little bit more when we were all in the house? Ooh, you know, me. I'm not good with these questions. Someone said something. It was at your birthday.
