Today we celebrate the Feast day for our daughter's patron Saint. May she have many years. Xronia Polla!
We enjoyed a lovely day together today and tonight our family came over for some sweets after dinner to celebrate her special day. We bought her a few new spiritual books that she had pointed out in a catalog and enjoyed reading them tonight before she fell asleep ! I think it's important to start family traditions when they are young -and learning the importance of your nameday and observing it in some special way is an important thing for a child.
Many years to all those celebrating today !

I agree that it is important to celebrate your children's namedays. Our children have come to expect a cake to accompany them to church the week of their namedays! So EVERYONE can help celebrate! (c;
