Post tenebras lux....

After darkness..... light.  We are reaching some of the darkest days of the year and we're reminded
of the Light of Christ that came into the world as a baby so long ago.  As we pass the second Sunday of Advent we remember the darkness of our souls and the Light of the Savior. 

O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death’s dark shadows put to flight.

Come, Thou long expected Jesus

Born to set Thy people free;
From our fears and sins release us,
Let us find our rest in Thee.
Israel’s Strength and Consolation,
Hope of all the earth Thou art;
Dear Desire of every nation,
Joy of every longing heart.





And just because....  here are pictures of our sweet girl.
