I had never heard of it before now. It seems very beautiful, thanks for mentioning it, Lucy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820630366331500762.post-38361115633801318442008-12-09T12:27:00.000-08:002008-12-09T12:27:00.000-08:00So sad that you were all sick!

That's definitely a "shrinker" as in shrinky dinking it and making it into a charm or keychain :)::Sylvia::https://www.blogger.com/profile/14975937388439766126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820630366331500762.post-4341015972506371012008-12-09T06:13:00.000-08:002008-12-09T06:13:00.000-08:00Hi, Lucy!Due to the fact that we have usually been...Hi, Lucy!<BR/><BR/>Due to the fact that we have usually been out of town on Christmas Eve and that my children were so young, we have not done a traditional Christmas Eve dinner as a family. We will be home, however, this year and my oldest is now 9, so I would be interested in finding out more myself about the very symbolic Holy Supper you refer to above. Someone described it to me years ago and it sounded quite wonderful and meaningful. If anyone else reading this comment knows where Lucy and I might be able to find out the specifics or some background info on this, please let me know!!Molly Sabourinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04289593743687415065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820630366331500762.post-55756869538998367822008-12-08T18:27:00.000-08:002008-12-08T18:27:00.000-08:00Loving embrace of prayers for you and yours as you...Loving embrace of prayers for you and yours as you all head back to wellness road :)<BR/>Holy Father Nicholas, pray unto God for us!Kelleylynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14434578851575849465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820630366331500762.post-4607906655131033342008-12-08T15:40:00.000-08:002008-12-08T15:40:00.000-08:00I am also very fond of St. Nicholas Day.

My church has a lovely, low-key celebration that my kids just love.<BR/><BR/>I was wondering, do you do a Holy Supper on Christmas Eve? I think this is a more Russian tradition, but I've seen it referenced a few places and it sounds cool. I just wondered if this was something you do. Thanks. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820630366331500762.post-18714462682954208672008-12-08T10:03:00.000-08:002008-12-08T10:03:00.000-08:00Elijah's drawing is wonderful!
