December Daily (day three) photo friday edition

I wanted to share this menorah Molly and I made on Wednesday. This is my first time having one and I am enjoying it. I have been using chabad.org to guide our small observance of this holiday. We have our own little ritual. We light the candles at sunset and say, "in celebration of light over darkness, of purity over adulteration and of spirituality over materiality." And to me those are some powerful words to recognize at the start of the holiday season. We leave the candles on about 15 minutes and then blow them out. I was really impressed by how excited Molly was to craft this menorah with me. I think this tradition may be a keeper.
