It’s not Christmas yet—it’s Advent

I just want to remind everyone that it’s not time for Christmas yet—we are currently in a season of its own called Advent. We’re starting the second week of Advent, a four-week period between ordinary time and Christmas. It’s a period of time specially marked out for quietly preparing for Christmas.

So contrary to the holiday ads on TV, it’s not Christmastime quite yet. It’s Advent.

  1. If it helps you get in the season, here's a great (unofficial) Lego advent calendar from one of my favorite Flickr photographers. He's adding a new one each day. This photograph is great too, even though it's not part of the calendar.
