I couldn't agree with you more when you say that "Christmas is about when you can be a family". My parents were split too. Christmas eve was spent with my mom singing christmas carols and opening the first round of loot, christmas day with dad and his new family doing the same minus the singing. Not quite a Norman Rockwell but oh well, that's life!!!! <br /> Merry, Merry Christmas!Hood Canal Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978775783225671541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-60531713119316071.post-22415262923252529732009-12-22T15:22:48.368-08:002009-12-22T15:22:48.368-08:00That was a bittersweet read.

(I remember the two times my parents announced they were divorcing. I cried so dang bitterly, that both times they relented. My mom endured adultery by my dad so that she could keep her fam together, not getting an apology from my dad till on her deathbed. A saint.) The sweetness was in your Christmas traditions - all of them... a mom and dad who tried to stitch up your broken heart with many blessings at Christmas. Thank you for sharing.

From each home I took my favorite traditions and made them my own. Through the years my children have also been behind new traditions: "Mom, if it is Jesus' birthday shouldn't we have a cake and sing?"<br />And so we shall.Decor To Adorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04359245078617786198noreply@blogger.com
