The first light of Advent is the light of stones.
Stones that live in crystals, seashells, and bones.
Once Ryan was ready for Pj's I settled to mood of the house by turning of the lights and lighting the candles on the table. Then following the lantern's light we walked into the kitchen where our Advent table is set up. I told a story of the festival of stones as we lit the 1st advent candle. After that we walked Ryan up to bed with our only light from our lanterns.
Winter is a time for reflecting inwards and finding our inner peace as the days grow shorter. Having the advent is a great way to stop and come together as a family and absorb the quietness around us.
