Day 12: candy cane night

We read the book 'J is for Jesus'.
It is the story of the candy cane. It was made by a candy maker that wanted to make a special candy to celebrate Jesus. So he makes it in the shape of a J. Makes it red in memory of the cross and the blood that Jesus shed for us. And the white is to symbolize that we are washed white as snow when we as for forgiveness. The J also turns into a Shepherd's staff when turned upside down.

We read the book and then enjoyed some candy canes ourselves!
