It’s Christmas morning when cobwebs should fill the space between yesterday and today. But they are cleared away…still awake, we are, Christmas came in the same space.

It’s 1:30 am!

I feel it in my heart, yesterday was special. Long and busy, different, a Sunday at home, no church, and that was the strangest.

The key to family gatherings is to keep it simple. Don’t make any one feel like they are a “Martha” always doing. Let down the walls. Make sure all feel welcome and your work is done.

Though Christmss may come just once a year, repeat your memories as often as necessary. The days will come when they’ll be different and it will be your memories that carry you through.

Now. Enjoy yourself.
