We had a wonderful Christmas at our house and we’re not done yet. We had a nice quiet Christmas morning with the kids, then went to my mom’s house in the evening and exchanged gifts with the rest of my family. Tonight we’re heading over to my brother’s house for a meal and gift exchange with my dad his wife.
Presents and everything else aside though, what I enjoyed most about Christmas this year was just being with my family. I feel like this was the best Christmas I’ve ever had. I feel so blessed and it has been really nice to sit back, relax, and enjoy everything that I have.
The best Christmases were the ones where I still believed in Santa, then when my children were that young that they believed, and when my grandchildren were at that phase. Somehow the magic is gone, these days.
This Christmas was one when I could sit back and appreciate and enjoy life. I feel very lucky, too. Have a wonderful New Year!
