Photos: Our morning advent readings, read by young men and their Daddy at the breakfast table; the picture ornaments of humble and great characters in the lineage of Jesus are hung on our homemade Jesse Tree by their raffia ribbons. Little brother plays with the figures for another Advent tradition- a burlap-backed scene of the stable that hangs on the wall, and big sister puts the figures in their places.
We keep the blinds closed and light the lamps, plug in the twinkle lights, and still our spirits as we read and bow our heads as we pray... oh, how the anticipation is building!
