The most wonderful time of the year
Since today was the first Sunday of Advent, we lit our Advent candle and after dinner had our traditional carol sing around the piano. I have always loved this family tradition. What I possibly love even more is that my children love it and we're looking forward to it. They have even lobbied to do some carol singing at our tree trimming party on Saturday because they think it's even more fun with their older brothers and sisters joining in. And I have to add, that after years of carol singing, often doing all the verses, I am pretty impressed with how many they know from memory. I actually had no idea they all knew all five verses of Good King Wenceslas.
