I realize that isn’t possible because they’re all at the North Pole, or grazing in Lapland, but that’s what it feels like and I think I saw a hoof print on my forehead late last night. It might be payback for eating reindeer meat when we were in Finland about ten years ago. I did swallow, but I didn’t like it. Doesn’t that count? I do hope Santa forgives me and all those Finns and Laps who eat it all the time. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Rudolph or anyone we know. It’s a funny thing about the holidays how they run all over us, like reindeer run amok, whether we enjoy them or not so why not try to get into the spirit of the season? This year is a difficult one for my family because of a family member who is direly ill but...

One year, the only place we could find open was a Shula’s Steakhouse. Their menu comes on a football, an actual leather football. God bless us, everyone! Kim’s experience is a little more Bedford Falls to my Pottersville, which suits us both just fine. Her upside is the Christmas-y feel of hot cocoa in her pajamas; mine is that Mom no longer has the desire to attend Christmas mass.

They have been great stories, innovative ideas and many chuckles, also. Sometimes I think we share more deeply or at least as deeply when we laugh together as when we cry together. I thought it would be life affirming to share some of our special holiday memories. You know, those times that remain in our hearts and minds and stand out when the word “Christmas” is mentioned? How about if I start things off by sharing a few of my memories with all of you? As the youngest of four daughters, I remember we always opened our gifts on Christmas Eve. We had a big dinner, from which I figured out later, my dad always had to excuse himself for some reason; then he would ...
