As a new mother, I am celebrating new life this Christmas (and the joys of motherhood). As a non-Christian, I miss having traditions in my life, but I like the way you have described the candle lighting. This will be a nice addition to our holiday season and I think I'm going to try it next year. Thank you. Your posts (on damomma) always make me cry and this one is no different.

And now I am back and similarly speechless. But nonetheless, I wanted to say that this post was very thought provoking. I am not religious in the slightest and am always rather wary of being too romantic or sentimental about children, babies or parenthood but nonetheless, somehow this did make me feel a bit that way. Beautifully written and somehow rather magical! I came here earlier and read this and tried to say something but couldn’t. And now I am back and similarly speechless.

Good luck to you three. I promise, being a mother is the most fun you will ever have. It is worth the Wait. I am so glad the post is helpful. Good luck to you three.

Your tie-in with Advent is special to me - I've shared it with my husband who is a devout Catholic (me - not so much) - so we can tie in this/his ritual with our circumstances. Perfect timing. Perfect for us. Cheers, DaMomma,
