Glad tidings of comfort & joy

After weeks of preparation and longing, the school holidays are finally here and Christmas is upon us!

The Boy and I spent the weekend with my mum and step-mum, but now he's headed home to Glasgow and my step-mum to Gloucestershire to see her grandchildren, so I'll be spending the next few days quietly with my mum: reading books by the fire, watching seasonal films, drinking wine, mulling cider, eating lots of cheese...it will be bliss!

I hope that wherever it finds you, your Christmas is peaceful, relaxing and joyful.  And I'll leave you with this song, Sufjan Stevens' version of Oh Holy Night.
