Christmas
Christmas Eve is a time for candlelight. It is a time when one desires nothing more than family and soft music. Who can say what passes through our hearts on Christmas Eve? Strange thoughts, undefinable emotions, and sudden tears-- All this and more, unbidden, come without reason.
And we burn our candles
For this is Chrismas Eve.
Our evening brought singing, stories, and the final lighting of our Advent Spiral.

Christmas Eve is not a time to be merry, but quietly glad. It is the proper time to wish upon a star. It is a time of wonder, of thankfulness that life is still being created anew out of darkness. It is a time of quiet awakening to beauty.
And we burn our candles
For this is Christmas Eve.
Our evening brought a walk with lanterns, under the starry sky.
We wondered at the stars, left food for the wild animals, and scurried inside as coyotes howled all around us.

LOL...I have to say I love blog feed. ;)
I just read another post of yours, sighed with contentment and feelings of how nice it was to see and read. Then I clicked out (prepared to move on to another place in the blogging world), and my next post that popped up was another of your family.
Many smiles here at my computer. :) :) :)
