Some photos from our family’s Mothers’ Night celebration. We also ended up singing along to Chase Hill’s song “Mother, Listen”, off their new CD “Sing the Sun’s Return” (accompanying booklet with music and lyrics available here) which coincidentally arrived today. Highly recommended!

…and finally Hobbes

This was the first time we’ve done a Feast of the Mothers, and I found it to be a wonderful and fulfilling experience. I definitely like the richness and texture that these sorts of celebrations bring. It really makes the season come alive, rather than just being “Heathen Christmas”.
