Aftermath











It's over! Kind of a let-down after all is said and done. All that anticipation and then - poof! - it's over that fast! In just two hours yesterday, Mom and I had erased all evidence of Christmas, and in another hour, we had all of it packed away in the basement. It's as if it never really happened! It must have been a figment of our imaginations! Bottom line - Christmas just isn't the same without our "babies" around to share it with. We need those little Santa-believers around for the excitement value! I'm not saying we didn't have a wonderful Christmas - we did - absolutely! We did all the usual things - watched too much TV, played cards, ate too much sweet stuff, went to the candlelight service, opened presents, and just plain enjoyed each other's company. It was a really, really good Christmas! But just imagine what it would have been like with the gang from Canada . . .








We miss all of you so very, very much! xxxxxooooo
