Tonight was magical…first Xmas eve ever without mom…but my sister made it special. Before we sat down for dinner, she asked all of us to join hands and read a beautiful blessing and tribute to mom. Then…it was over…and we all ate and drank and reminisced and had a wonderful time together.
My dad was amazing. Here he is with all his grandchildren. He and mom were married for 58 years. Had 4 children who married 4 awesome people. THE most amazing thing – all four of are still married to the same people and we all are the proud parents of these children in the photo. In this day and age, for 4 children to still be married to the same people is just short of a miracle, and we can only attribute that to the example set by our parents. Not only were they together 58 years, they were happy and showed us how it’s done through thick n thin. Tonight, and this photo, is a tribute to that.
And so, as another Xmas eve goes by, I am blessed to be part of an amazing legacy, and….I have written.
Merry Xmas to all and to all a g’nite!
