I had only small children then, and was so hungry for the kind of ideas you wrote about. Seeing that article today certainly brought me back to very happy times.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06164970035946546827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27982542.post-74827148530118062032007-02-05T11:04:00.000-05:002007-02-05T11:04:00.000-05:00Christine, I love hearing that about "the Feast of...Christine, I love hearing that about "the Feast of Mary of the Candles!" My husband is Polish, so our kids are too.
