Our Christmas holidays were full and go-go-go as usual, with fun in the snow, precious family all around us, Gustav's, thoughtful presents, a new baby, bingo, non-stop dress up, and just an all-around good time. However, as we sat on the couch on Christmas morning and looked at one another, we realized this was the first Christmas morning in 39 years we did not have at least one of our kids there with us to open presents. The end of an era. They have their own families now and need to start traditions of their own. We understood that. But it was still a sad moment. And it kind of caught us by surprise - until we realized it was SO QUIET. But at least we have the memory of Grandma KR selling out to block that goal in indoor soccer.
