Multitudes on Monday-Fourth Week of Advent

It is the last week of Advent, less than a week before Christmas and  I am grateful for...

a two year old's spontanteous singing of Santa Claus is Coming to Town replacing the "'you' better watch out" with " 'I'better watch out" {135}

for husbands who bring home the most beautiful live Christmas trees {136}

for prayers around the Advent wreath with the two year old always insisting on singing Immaculate Mary {137}
for teenage sons who want you to make Christmas cookies and who make a batch themselves when you don't {138}

for making it to daily mass some days {139}
