It has been 8 years since my sweet Mother departed from this life & I am remembering her with such fondness.
Miss you & love you always & forever.
Is it me or just nostalgia speaking when I ask of you,
Are Christmas memories more precious as the years of living accrue?
Back when you were little & magic seemed so real,
Life to you was in a world that was really quite ideal,
Leafing through the catalogue & doing a little dreaming,
Hoping Santa knew you had behaved in ways that were redeeming,
Long before the high tech days & before unplugged was cool,
When the countdown was on for holidays & finally no more school,
My mom would disappear into her room with rolls of wrapping paper,
Sneaking a peak was tempting, but I could never pull off that caper,
The house always looked so nice decked in euphoric merriment,
Through my eyes now looking back it was really quite an event,
I realize now how my parents defined what it is to give your all,
& when I get the Christmas blues that’s the memory that I recall,
Sometimes at Christmas we grumble about how busy it tends to be,
Obligations & visiting those whom you don’t really care to see,
You are after all accumulating remembrances you can just chalk up to life,
Be as kind as your can to others, it will help you deal with strife,
Times may be hard for some of us, & we all have our concerns,
So my Christmas wish for all of you is that you have many happy returns.

Hey Nolter, I always got a an Orange too, well except the one year when it was coal...
Socks, underwear and a new toothbrush were pretty much a given too.
In later years is was one of those chocolate oranges, a sleeve of golf balls, some new hot sauce and a couple of airplane size liqueur bottles.
Dear Loocie you said it so well!
Mom's sure do spoil us and we don't appreciate it enough until they are gone!

As a kid, I also got peanuts. Again, don't know why. Santa always hung our stocking on the door knob of our room. That way we knew he arrived. Included with the peanuts and oranges was also a small toy. I later realized that was my parents way of getting another 30 minutes of sleep as we played in our rooms with that toy until we got bored and moved to the tree.
