A Sense of Family

When I think of Christmas, I think of family. Christmas meant going to my grandparents’ home on Christmas Eve with my aunts, uncles, and cousins to feast on an abundance of food (always several different types of fish), play games, and laugh. We’d sing Christmas songs led by my uncle, who sang totally off-key. We made memories.

As we grew older and started our own families, we moved all over the United States—some of us even moved overseas. But I still wanted to instill a sense of family in my own daughter and son. The gatherings were smaller and less food was prepared, but somehow we all managed to stay close.

My children were fortunate to know their great-grandparents and grandparents. We created new Christmas traditions and kept some of the old. But most importantly, my children know that throughout their lives, they have best friends who will always be there for them in good and bad times—their family.
