{{arrival}} - DPP '10

We lit the final candle yesterday and I noticed that the stable and manger were lit by it too.  Our next candle is placed at the center of these on Christmas day.  We light the Christ candle to represent the arrival of the Son of God, the Light of the World, into our lives - tangibly.
God in flesh, cradled in the arms of His creation.
Tofer arrives from Hollywood tonight and we are on pins and needles waiting for the plane to touch down and him to walk down the breezeway and into our arms.  I'm not a late night person, but I think I might be guzzling the coffee tonight, & lighting the candles to welcome our son home - tangibly.
