To everyone here. I hope you all get great gifts, eat good food and get lots of hugs from the people you love. I hope you are all happy inspite of the daily hoohaa that goes on, and have a sense of satisfaction that you are doing the best you can, in these easy but troubled times. Even though we have it better that our grandparents, we do have alot to worry about. I hope you take the time to sit in a chair with a hot drink and just stare at the tree, and look at the ornaments, and have great memories, especially the old ones. And it is ok to think of sad Christmas memories, of the people who have passed on, that you loved and now miss. And though it is a scary thought, hope that you get to have ten or twenty more Christmas days, and treat this one as if it could be your last. Even though the kids seem to be mesmerised by the gifts and what they got, and sometimes forget the spirit of the day, enjoy watching them open their gifts, pay close attention to every moment, take lots of pictures, and have lots of fun. Your fellow forumite, Craberta.
