"My godmother brought me a fabulous Easter candle yesterday. When my friends saw it, they admired its beautiful ribbons and Katerina said that it was the most beautiful Easter candle she had ever seen. It was made by my godmother herself.Most people in Greece buy their Easter candles for their godchildren but my godmother enjoys making my Easter candle by herself. I can’t wait to light my beautiful candle with the Holy Light in the church of my village at the midnight of Holy Saturday!" (Eleni 7 years old).
