I think it happens on the winter solstice, day gets longer til the summer solstice, then night gets longer til winter solstice, gets shorter til summer solstice, etc.
equinox= when night and day are same length
winter solstice= when night is longest
summer solstice= when day is longest
Above is true in the Northern Hemisphere: in the Southern Hemisphere, the exact opposite solstices are markers of the length of day.

Why does the length day and night change throughout the year?
The tilt of the Earth's axis, and it's elliptical orbit around the sun. We only have 24 hours in a day, so if the nights become longer, the days have to become shorter. Seriously, it's all due to the Earth orbiting the sun in an elliptical pattern and the axis tilt, which always stays on the same plane. At the winter equinox, the days begin to get longer, until the summer equinox, when the days begin to shorten again. Note that in the winter, the sun sits much lower in the sky than during the summer, at least in the northern hemisphere. It's reversed for the southern hemisphere, as are the seasons. Hard to imagine summer for December, and snow in July, but that's how it is below the equator.
