I was blessed having my daughters and their families around during the Christmas season. My brother, Brian and his two kids, Emily and Zach were able to be back for a few days too. We had a nice gathering at my Mom's Christmas eve - plenty of food and laughter... Later I stayed home with Jacob and Colin while the others attended evening services to celebrate Christ's birth.
Being with family at this time of year warms my heart. A smile and a tear comes when I reflect back on how my dad so enjoyed Christmas. As the years go by, it won't be easy getting us all together, but the memories will last a life time...
