Today I took down and put away Fall around the house. You were fun Fall, but it’s time for the blessings of Advent and Christmas. I have to say I don’t think I’ve ever been so eager for Christmas. This year it might be hard for me to savor Advent as much as I like to with the anticipation of Christmas. I’m not sure what’s causing that but it’s real.

Ephraim discovers the joys of riding in circles on the porch the way Gerhardt used to at our old parsonage. He has a little bit more room than Gerhardt did though.

I’ll say goodbye to this Season with some words from Lily. Alas, Mercy got a hold of it before it went to the publishers.

Fall is….
