Wow we’re already into the Twelve Days of Christmas! Or are we? I used to think it was the 12 days leading UP to Christmas Day, but a little online research has taught me otherwise…

The Twelve Days of Christmas is probably the most misunderstood part of the church year among Christians who are not part of liturgical church traditions… www.cresourcei.org/cy12days.html

The Twelve Days of Christmas and the associated evenings of those twelve days (Twelve-tide) are the festive days beginning the evening of Christmas Day (December 25) through the morning of Epiphany (January 6 . ) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelve_Days_of_Christmas

Nothing gets me into the holiday spirit more than a great Christmas carol, like this classic…

On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree.
