Wonderful days....

What wonderful days we have had.  Full of merriment, joy, love and laughter with Family and Friends!  I reflect of these past days filled with so much beauty and recall so many moments.
My Grandson Kayden sitting among a pile of gifts so large that they obscure him from view at this his first Christmas.  His Mom Deanna and Dad Kyle smiling broadly as they help him rip at the paper.
The smiles as we all open our presents commenting loudly having fun.  Kiro hyperventilating at seeing his Leafs jersey with his name on the back - the gift of the day I might add which was Rich's gift to Kiro.
The smell of the Turkey cooking away in the oven to be taken over to friends where we joined a larger celebration.  Sitting at the Christmas table laughing, joking and eating...and eating...and eating!  The children's Christmas play, specially written for us by Ane and expertly performed by Ane, Adam and Theodore.  The time Linda, Jackie and Chris put in to help with set design and costume changes and the other adults cheering and encouraging.
Later sitting down with Rich and watching "National Lampoon Christmas Vacation" for the hundredth time and still laughing at all the silly bits.
I am so grateful for all these memories and that I was surrounded by so many people that I love and that love me!
Love and Light all....
