Happy Birthday / Merry Christmas

Max was born on Christmas day, one year ago.  

"Tonight, 'a great light' shines forth (Isaiah 9:1); the light of Jesus' birth shines all about us. How true and timely are the words of the prophet Isaiah which we have just heard: 'You have brought abundant joy and great rejoicing' (9:2)! Our heart was already joyful in awaiting this moment; now that joy abounds and overflows, for the promise has been at last fulfilled. Joy and gladness are a sure sign that the message contained in the mystery of this night is truly from God.' 

Pope Francis.
