Days of Christmas past:
Dinner with the family and whatever aunt/uncle/cousin was living with us at the time. Huge party at my aunt’s house one floor below. Kids in the bedroom & the adults drinking and dancing in the living room.
Days of Christmas present:
Dinner with the family of course. Recently we started doing a Secret Santa and gag gifts. This year we’re playing Cutthroat Santa. Some folks aren’t into the idea but too bad- my house my choice. Handmade snowflake ornaments made of wrapping paper and I’ve started to collect Lemax buildings & figures for a Christmas village.
Days of Christmas future:
I still dream of a magical christmas. Every year I try to get into the spirit of the season and people’s constant bah humbug attitude drags me down. I want my children to have all the wonderful experiences of childhood I never had. Next year I plan to build a display for my village, take the kids to a show, take a family portrait, learn to make my own coquito, make a gingerbread house and actually mail some Christmas cards on time.

“What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace.”
~ Agnes M. Pahro
Happy Holidays!
