Thank you! We just made snowflakes for math and listened to this. For once, I got to make snowflakes, too, instead of being the one reading aloud. -Nan

We light a few candles and extinguish the electric lights. The little ones crawl into bigger laps . The older kids are home so we all had hot drinks and ginger cookies.
Somehow fifteen minutes is just right. Good night!
