This afternoon I placed electric candles in all the windows of the house (good thing it is a small house.)

The candles in the windows were one of Bill’s favorite Christmas decorations, and although he left much of the Yuletide decorating to his own personal Christmas Genie (whose efforts he applauded and admired) he did help with the traditional candles. They also were the decorations that he liked to go up early in the holiday season and take down very late (as in March or Easter!)

Now I plug the candles in and test them, replace light bulbs, and place them in the windows by myself.

So dear Bill, wherever you are, I hope you can see the warm lights of home shining with love from our windows on this dark and rainy night.
