A Magical Family Christmas

A Magical Family Christmas The smell of flickering, tall balsam candles, reflecting on the mirrored wall. Heavenly music dancing mixed with the loving voices of a large, close family. The Noble Fir standing like a grand king, his aromatic good cheer , is back, like last year. Piles of presents, almost halfway to the ceiling, wrapped with love. Bowls of nuts, chocolates, candy canes and bon- bons~ ah~the sweetest smell. Oh, the excitement , so bright, this fantastic Holy Night. Our children, grandchildren, going to sleep in giggling, anticipatory delight. I wish it were more than once a year, the love, the wholesomeness of family. Always brings on grateful, holiday,happiness tears. December 21, 2019

We both know the joy and love of a family...it's so special. It made us the dazzling people we are. They loved us, we learned right from wrong. That is a gift I never thought of till now! We are so blessed and it's been a joy knowing you this year, Tom. Merry Christmas Panagiota xxx
