Day Eight Hundred and Fifty-Two

Wednesday 24th December 2014 ~ Today it was Christmas Eve wgich Daddy said is the day before Christmas Day. Mummy, Ira and me played at home and then we went to meet my friends in the Queen's Arms in Walthamstow village for a drink. I had apple juice and Mummy had mulled wine. 
My friends Henry, Eddie-Frank and Kit arrived with their Mummies and Daddies
We had a short, wintery walk to St. Mary's Church, arriving jus in time for their Christingle carol service
Mummy and me sat at the front with all the children where we listened to a story about the baby Jesus. e sang songs and shook shakers. It was fun!
After the singing, all the children were given a Christingle - an orange with a ribbon and sweeties and a candle in the top...
...if that wasn't exciting enough, a man came round with real fire and lit them for us
Wow said Henry!
I loved looking at the light and I was a very sensible girl holding it.
Uncle Ed came to meet us and we went home for mince pies, hot chocolate and stories by the fire. And we saw a little light moving across the sky that Daddy said was Father Christmas. We left a mince pie outside for Father Christmas and a carrot for Rudolph...
...and Ira and me hung up our stockings for Father Christmas. So exciting!
