All Creation Waits

From bestselling author Gayle Boss comes a breathtaking picture book that invites children to journey through Advent alongside 24 extraordinary woodland animals. Beautifully illustrated by award-winning artist Sharon Spitz, All Creation Waits: The Advent Mystery of New Beginnings captivates young readers with lyrical storytelling and radiant watercolors that bring the magic of winter’s creatures to life. Each day of Advent reveals a new animal’s astonishing adaptation to the dark and cold—Wood Frog becomes a frog-shaped cube of ice, Painted Turtle sleeps underwater without breathing, and Black Bear hibernates in perfect stillness. With each tale, children hear the gentle refrain: The dark is not an end. It’s a door. It’s the way a new beginning comes. This stunning book encourages families to slow down and savor the beauty of reflective waiting during the often chaotic holiday season. Readers will be enchanted by: Fascinating animal facts that reveal the intricate ways creatures survive winter. Poetic prose that celebrates the wonder of creation. "Animal wonderment" reflection questions that invite thoughtful exploration and conversation. Advent calendar-style spreads, perfect for discovering one animal each day.

I'm Kaitlyn Walsh, and I am so thankful you want to know the backstory behind Farmhouse Market and Farmhouse Market Kids!   Since opening Farmhouse Market in July of 2015 A LOT of life changes have happened. I married my amazing husband, Joseph Walsh, in January of 2019. We now have two beautiful children, Georgia & Brooks. I grew up where our boutique is located—the beautiful Hill Country just outside of San Antonio—in Spring Branch, Texas. I have always LOVED shopping (what girl doesn't, right?!) and enjoyed decorating—so after a girls' trip to Round Top, Texas, with my mom, we decided that Spring Branch NEEDED Farmhouse Market. Basically, overnight, our vision began to come to life. We opened Farmhouse Market in July of 2015. We started out as just a home decor and furniture store but quickly grew into the full boutique that we are now: Women's, Home, Gifts, Baby & Kids and Tween!  I now have an amazing team of girls who help me run all of the different pieces of Farmhouse, and I am SO lucky to have all of them! You may see them in the store, on Instagram, talk to them in our online chat, or on social media.
