The Apple Tree

17 Dec
2009

gloucester-cathedral[Reposted from LaughingTree.org]

I love Christmas carols, often starting into my Christmas playlist in early October. Maybe it’s because I was born so close to Christmas, but I find these songs so rich and moving.

When I recorded my first album, Tonic, I opened it with a carol, O Come, O Come Emmanuel. Then we moved to Korea, and I started a tradition of recording a carol every year. Since Christmas 2006, I have shared these songs for free as a gift to my friends around the world.

A few weeks ago, my friend Gail shared a gorgeous video of the choir at King’s College, Cambridge singing Jesus Christ the Apple Tree, and I knew that that had to be this year’s song.

Below, you can listen to Jesus Christ the Apple Tree and each of my carols from 2005 to today, and then download them all. They’re a free gift for you to enjoy, so please feel free to share these songs around with your friends and family. I hope you enjoy these songs.

Merry Christmas!

-Jessica

  • Must I leave the house before March? Seoul’s cold snap is sucking out my will to live. My will to live outside at anyway… #

Saturday night, well actually Sunday morning, we went to bed at 5:15 a.m. Adam was sick, and I was uploading a million photos from our trip. Go check out our photos page. Then I slept until 2 p.m.

Last night, we went to bed around midnight, and we’re both awake now at 5:15 a.m. unable to sleep. Clearly, we are not back on schedule in Seoul yet.

We’ll make good use of this insomnia, at least. We’re going to stay up and go to 6:50 a.m. hot yoga in Sinchon.

  • Lazy morning in Torino. It’s 10:30 and we just crawled out of bed. Davide and Claudia’s blackout shades are too effective, methinks. #
  • I’m feeling much better today, but Jessica is still feeling virus-y. No illness in 6 months of travel, & here we get sick in the last week. #

A Felicitous Encounter

20 Nov
2009

img_9824Today was our fourth and final day in Balti/Falesti, Moldova visiting Felicia. We’ve had an amazing time. Everything has been even better than we had imagined, and I think we were able to encourage Felicia in addition to spoiling her with some nice things. On top of that, we had two nice afternoons getting to know other kids in her dormitory and sharing some love with them. Felicia and the kids had lots of love to give in return and taught us some things, too. Our experiences have been really positive, but they’ve left us totally zapped every evening. Tonight’s no exception. We’re going to have to sit on this and process a little.

img_9748Tomorrow we’ll take a bus back to the capitol Chisinau and take the night train back to Bucharest, arriving there early on Saturday morning. We’ll have a day and a night in Bucharest, again with our host Tony. Then on Sunday, we’ll fly to Italy and have a week there with our friends. In Bucharest or Italy, we’ll try to take some time and write down some thoughts and stories as well as post some pictures and videos from our time here in Moldova.

Thanks for sharing this experience with us and praying for us and Felicia.

Lots of love,
Jessica and Adam
