Six and Jaselka

Sunday 16 December 2012 | general

Today our daughter turned six.

“When exactly?” the Girl asked during breakfast.

“About an hour and forty-one minutes ago,” K laughed. It seems that little more than that hour and forty-some minutes has passed since then — certainly not six years. Certainly not 2,191 days. In hours, it seems even more daunting: 52,594.

Our day ended with the Polish community’s traditional Christmas pageant. The Girl played an angel, and K and the Boy were Mary and Jesus — a Baby Jesus who already sits and claps, and squeals.

And so the Christmas season feels as if it’s officially begun.

The performance from 2011 is here.
