Another Christmas has come and gone. And, to be entirely truthful, this has been one of the better that I can ever remember having shared in.

The gifts were all appropriate, appreciated and enjoyed.

The times spent were all joyous and free of dramatics (minus my upset stomach, which may or may not have stemmed from the suppression of so much hate and rage, jk).

Most of what I will remember are the smiles and the laughter and the sharing of memories new and old.

Thank you, dear family, and thank you most of all Sarah.
