This is gonna be short I think but I had to share.
What do these three things have to do with each other you ask. Crammed into one day, they are nearly perfect. Not just any day though, Christmas Day. That's right, it's one of my fondest memories growing up, well, when I was in HS anyhow.
There were a few years when it was just my mom and I on Christmas day. The first year we decided to take advantage of the less crowded mountain and returned home for pizza and a movie. We repeated this for a few years and I miss it. It was a simple day with no expectations. Just fun with ma.
Thanks for everything mom. I love you a ton and thank God for you.
My most memorable Christmas was the year it was just the four of us, 1988, Jamie was 11, Brandon 8 and we asked what they wanted for Christmas dinner? Campbell's chicken noodle soup from a can! I always made homemade chicken noodle soup so canned was a special treat. That was what we had ~ it was a special day for all of us.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder of the simpler things in life.
