Today finds me finalizing my Advent Letter Writing Aspirations for 2018.
It is the First Sunday of Advent and Christmas really is three weeks and two days from now.
First, it was just last week I was writing about suggesting Giving a Year of Letters Christmas Gift Idea (11-26-2018). Second, if that idea is too ambitious of a commitment, perhaps instead including a letter in select Christmas cards may be an alternative option. Third, yes, one could do both ideas!
Check out “The Candles of the Advent Wreath” Explanation
In case you are trying to keep which candle is for what straight, I’m seeing a really nice summary of the 2018 Advent Calendar Dates along with detailing the dates for Advent and overview.
Furthermore, it shares why each candle is called what and what to light each week of Advent and why.

In conclusion, my Advent Letter Writing Aspirations this year is to get out at least one letter each week. With my Christmas themed return address labels arriving this next week; it means my excuses for not getting started is gone. Here’s to weaving the gift of our letter writing along with Advent this year.
