It’s Epiphany, y’all!

I’m late, but it’s still technically Jan. 6, which Christians celebrate as either the day that the Magi (or the Wise Men, as we called them in Sunday School) reached the manger where Jesus Christ was born, or, in the Eastern Church, the day he was baptized.

In my household, it was always the day that the Christmas decorations came down. It’s good timing , I think – it depresses me when people rip down their greenery and lights mere hours after Christmas Day has ended.

Read a whole lot more at my good friend Wikipedia.
