The Baptism of the Lord. The “official” end of the Christmas season.  As we enter into Ordinary Time, I want to linger here. Maybe because I haven’t quite finished celebrating Christmas with my family yet.  This year was the first in 17 Christmases that all six of our kids haven't been under the same roof for Christmas morning.  Maybe I want to linger here because we started pulling out our Christmas decorations a lot closer to Christmas Eve than usual and I'm not ready to pack it all up…

Happy New Year!!  Our new liturgical calendar year has begun!

This is the time for expectant waiting and preparation.  I love it!  Most people do!  But it does often come with some difficulties.

This year, I’m thinking about how I am preparing.  Am I preparing for calm over chaos? Peace over panic? Love over angst?
