Zach used his toys to act out the story of the soldier who shared his cape with the poor man.
Then we gathered our friends together for a last minute lantern walk around the marina. Our tribe of friends range from public schooled to private schooled to radical unschooled to school-at-home types. But no other Waldorf-ish families. So we weren't sure how Z's little friends would react to making lanterns and telling the stories about keeping our inner lights shining in these dark days. Much to our delight, they loved it!
It made my inner light glow just hearing their laughter float above the firey lanterns as they danced in the night air. Thanks to all my other bloggy friends who post about Martinmas each year for the inspiration!

Love that last shot! How wonderful that you were able to include friends from all walks to join you in the simple lantern celebration. :)
I really love your photos Cindy and it made me happy to read of your amazing lantern walk, it sounds like a very very good one indeed! It sounds like you created a new tradition! xoxo
That's so cool.
beautiful!! very inspired to try these ourselves... jamie insists (and he may be right) that we have too many mason jars, this is the perfect rationale to postpone any glass jar purging. :-) liking your martinmas links too! gracias amiga
