It's that time of year again, and this year Daddy has introduced a Christmas tradition from his childhood -- the Advent wreath. In our house, the four white candles represent Peace, Joy, Hope and Love. Each one will be lit on a Sunday leading up to Christmas Day. The centre candle will be lit on December 25th in celebration of the birth of the baby Jesus, which is what this Christmas thing is all about, yes?
We started one week late on account of Daddy's poor calendar reading skills, but are on track with two candles lit this evening: Peace and Love. (Or was it Joy and Hope...?)
Happy Advent, everyone.
