So, it's once again the Christmas season. Thanksgiving has passed. I sit here and think about the value of family and friends. My life would be empty with out either.
This holiday season is especially tough for me since my grams died in September suddenly, which is weird because 2 weeks before she died I had seen her and hugged her and told her I loved her. I continually want to call her and talk to her and go to pick up the phone and remember that she isn't around anymore. Every time I think about her I start to cry. Even looking at pictures, jewelry, or knick knacks that she gave to me pulls at my heart.
I know she is in a better place where she isn't hurting anymore, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to be selfish and have her back here where I can see her and hug her and tell her I love her.
For my whole family this year has been hard. This past Thanksgiving wasn't the same because the whole family wasn't together. This Christmas is going to be really hard because we will all be together but missing one person, Grams. I know she will be watching and she will be with us in spirit.
Cherish the time you have with your family. You never know what will happen. I don't meant to be doom and gloom but this is just going to be a hard holiday for me.
