It is Christmas Eve and much of the world is pausing to celebrate the birth of Jesus, but the essence of the season is giving thanks for what we have. Good friends, our family, good fortune, which is measured in many ways. The Wreath has come to symbolize all of these things through time, perhaps even more strongly than the christmas tree.

It is a season for children. I remember the anticipation I had as a child, then that of my own children and look forward to that same joy in my grandchildren.
