"Advent, this powerful liturgical season that we are beginning, invites us to pause in silence to understand a presence. It is an invitation to understand that the individual events of the day are hints that God is giving us signs of the attention he has for each one of us.”
-Pope Benedict XVI

Our Day 15

Well, we forgot to see who sang loudest at Mass, but the kids are looking forward to getting that pink candle lit at dinner time.

We had a lazy day. We took all the kids to see Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader (in 2D, not 3D because 3D costs $3 per person more!), which was met by mixed reviews in our family. We certainly could have done with out the closing song: "We can all be kings and queens of something if we just believe!" Then we cuddled up under afghans and watched George C. Scott's "A Christmas Carol" (tell-tale 80s hair, but mostly very good). Fun to be lazy for a change...
