Something To Celebrate: Holy Innocents Day

Today is Holy Innocents Day, tucked quietly between the grand festivities of Christmas and the hopeful anticipation of New Year's. It's one of those beautifully understated holidays, a bit like finding a perfectly wrapped mini chocolate at the bottom of the holiday goodie bag.

For those of us still navigating the post-Christmas calm (or delightful chaos, depending on your household), or perhaps simply enjoying a moment of quiet reflection as an empty nester, these in-between days can feel a little undefined.

But even in these quiet corners of the calendar, there's always something worth a gentle nod, a brief moment of appreciation. Acknowledging small days, remembering quiet stories, or just noticing the stillness – it's all part of the broader celebration of life, isn't it?

So today, whether you're remembering the innocent, cherishing the quiet, or simply enjoying a warm cup of whatever brings you comfort, I hope you find a moment to savour the gentle rhythm of the day.
