I wanted to share with you today my mini nativity. I just adore it and thought it might make you smile, too. It was given to me by my friend, Diane, many years ago.

It sits on my altar in my writing cottage. In the early morning, before the sun rises, I love sitting in my cottage for a few moments with the lights turned off. I enjoy just having a candle burning as a way of invoking the Christmas spirit this time of year.

Also, being in the quiet before the world begins to stir is such a delicious treat.

It’s the small, but simple things that I find so much joy in.

It was fun coming across this quote also that I felt is so fitting…

A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;
It makes no noise at all,
But softly gives itself away.
