Thank you Sue for your sweet insightful comments! You are the very first to comment on our very first post…we uploaded this post on 12/22/22 at 2:22 after so many obstacles and difficulties that made it seem like we would never be able to launch out into the world. What an amazing, unexpected rush of ecstatic energy when our post went live…it was almost as powerful as being at the birth of my children!
It was the same with me…my childhood days were spent in beautiful places, yet were extremely rough and dramatic emotionally…so much so that I am still healing more than 50 years later. But all my Christmases shine with love and grandeur in memory!
Thanks for this wonderful story, and reminder of how powerful the holiday spirit can be. Looking forward to reading part 2. It's interesting reading your account, because just the other day I realized that although I have more unpleasant memories than I wish I did of growing up, I have no negative memories of Christmases past. Those memories are lovely. Wishing you and yours a blessed holiday! 💟
