A constant truth in a changing world

I realized this week that I have not really allowed myself to feel anything the last few weeks. I ponder the strangeness of our new reality, help make decisions about how to adapt, wonder how many weeks/months this will actually last… But I have not felt anger or sadness for my own current reality.

Some Things Never Change

Christmas – 2017

As I prepared for Christmas this year, I focused on keeping it simple and keeping it consistent. So, we’ll end up at the same house, same people, same schedule, practically the same menu and maybe even the same clothes. We’ll likely sit in the same spots as we gather around the same decorated tree to exchange gifts. I love that my kids have this simple tradition; each year, they are able to anticipate a warm and pleasant Christmas, celebrating with the people who love them the most!
