I like the new normal

I was nervous about Christmas. Emotionally, physically and financially I was unsure how I was going to manage Christmas. Everything had changed. But it was wonderful. It was a wonderful day just being with people I care about. It was about just being together, not about presents or food or anything else. Just being together. Attitudes were different somehow. No one was stressed about it all. What a revelation!

  • Oh Donna What a beautiful Christmas! That's the nicest thing I've heard for a while
  • OMG gosh best present ever that is truly delightful
  • I am a traditionalist, I love christmas and all the trimmings that go with it but this last christmas my best gift wasn't under the tree. We have a grandson who is just about to turn 2 and Oliver has Ceribal Palsey, he isunable to sit up unaided, crawl, or walk and he doesn't talk, well at christmas Ollie started to crawl! Its that comando type of crawl but who cares he is mobile. The best things certainly do not need unwrapping.

    I am so happy for you that your christmas went well.

    Love and kisses
