For Epiphany we lit the candles on our Christmas tree one last time and read the Epiphany stories from Stories for the Festivals of the Year and Es zogen drei Könige, and sang many songs, including De bon matin and We Three Kings.

Zum Dreikönigsfest haben wir die Kerzen am Weihnachtsbaum zum letzten Male angezündet und passende Geschichten aus Geschichten zu den Jahresfesten und Es zogen drei Könige gelesen.  Dazu wurde auch viel gesungen, u.a. De bon matin und We Three Kings.

  4. Birthday blessings to Johnathan! My birthday is this month as well - a good month to be born. ;) What a gift to be born on the Epiphany! He looks like he had a very good birthday.

  6. Thank you, San! (says Jonathan)

    You know, San, my parents said the same thing yesterday. Your children always somehow remain your babies, even when they grow up. But children don't want to hear that, especially not teenagers:) (or "Floras" for that matter).

    It's true, I did all the hard work. The first baby is always the longest labor -- at least with our babies. Thanks for your good wishes.

  7. Thank you, Alexandra. When is your birthday? Miriam's is on the 30th, my brother's and Peter's father's are also later this month. Must be a good month then. I always called Jonathan my little king when he was little.
