Today was not an unusual Sunday for us...eggs, bacon, tea, reading and sharing. We also did our Advent reading today. Poppy felt well enough to sit in his chair and read Luke 1 for us. It was glorious and special. He loves the Christmas story, it is really his only favorite thing about the season except he does adore a good sugar cookie.
Sabbath days for us have been holy together for a long time and today was no different. In the past years Sundays have held some of our richest talks and deepest lessons. I try to savor every moment and feel I just can't take it all in. But it will never be enough...we always long for more because we are designed for eternity...for the more.
Pepsi made a welcome appearance on our Sabbath today. Poppy was craving an ice cold Pepsi. I bought him a 2 liter at the store and mom called to say he was anxiously waiting and wondered when I would be home with that Pepsi. We poured it on ice and watched him drink it with as much enjoyment as a 5 year old who just met Mickey Mouse for the first time. He raised his fists in the air and cheered after he drank it. You would have thought he had witnessed the Broncos score a touch down but it was just a cheer for Pepsi. It was a great day!
