We light the second candle of Advent today and I try to remember that this busy season is really a time to prepare our hearts for the Christ child's coming. The children at church led the service and their message was an appropriate reminder "JESUS is the reason for the season". I pray that we will spend as much time preparing our hearts as we do our house and gifts and all the other festive things that happen in this time.
We made garlic herb bread tonight for dinner because we have at least 5 loaves of bread. Raphael attended his CDTM Christmas party on Friday and they had a lot of bread left over. So after Saturday's clean-up, Raphael became the recepiant of this lovely prize. I call this my Christmas bread because of the festive colors.
Raphael is study for his first exam on Tuesday. He has to do a lot of reading.
