Love

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.
That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.
What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.

Thomas Merton (1915 - 1968)

Christmas Eve

In the afternoon, we went to a candlelight service, which the kids loved because they could hold their own candles.  Can you tell? :)

Silent Night.

Holy night.

All is calm.

All is bright.

After the service, we came home for dinner.  I snuck upstairs to change clothes, but first got in a quick pic.  It's not often that I am seen in pictures since I'm always the one holding the camera.

The kids had fun with the Grandmas at the table with us.

I think Grandma Suzanney and Chloe got into a little staring match.
Then we went out driving to see Christmas lights.

When we got home, it was past bedtime.  But we made sure to put out cookies and milk for Santa (as well as a few packets of Smartees) and some carrots for the reindeer.
