Advent. The dawn of something big. Arrival. The coming. Preparation.

I have come to love the season of Advent. And having our own kids, it’s become even cooler.

Every night at the dinner table during Advent we sing a ridiculously silly song to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and I do stress EVERY night, for 25 days ….. I wouldn’t change a thing.

“Advent is a time to wait, not quite time to celebrate. Light the candles one by one, till this Advent time is done. Christmas day will soon be here. Time for joy and time for cheer.”

Blessings y’all.

Going where called,
Doing what is asked,

Doug
