		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was the first Sunday of Advent. I love everything about Advent – anticipating the coming of Christ, the candles, scripture readings that tell the story of Jesus, and the children around the table, candlelight glowing on their faces.

		<description><![CDATA[Thanksgiving is an odd holiday for us.  We&#8217;ve spent the vast majority of Thanksgivings celebrating in the homes of friends.  I&#8217;m not complaining, in fact, I really enjoy the rare times when we are invited to dinner; it takes a certain level of boldness to invite a family our size over and I always appreciate [...]]]></description>

Dimples came home from school on Friday feeling very edgy and irritable.  We invited three friends (sisters) to play and [...]]]></description>
