It's The Final Countdown

This time of year is so busy. There are presents to buy, meals to plan, parties, meals, trips to pubs. That's without Sinterklaas, writing cards, seeing friends, wrapping presents, dealing with sickness, coughs and colds,getting hair, nails and legs sorted out. There are vistors to plan for, packing to go away on a break with friends to sort out and the small matter of eating and drinking to fit in.

With all this it's great to take a moment each evening to light our Advent candle, to take time out to reflect and to think about the season and what it means to us other than all of the above. For those few minutes every day - I am thankful.
