These two photos were taken 40 years apart. In the first one, I was 3 years old, enjoying Christmas with my mom, my dad and my gram.
In the second one, taken last year, my cousin's daughter sits next to my gram, my step mom Doris and my dad.
This is the first Christmas we'll have without my dad or Gram. Dad passed away in March, Gram passed away this Dec. 1st. A very different Christmas, for sure. We miss them, but we know they're not far away. Miss the hugs, though.
Big hug to you sweetie. I can so relate. It's been years for me and I still miss mom, dad and my grammies. Thanks for sharing a wonderful part of your life. Have a great WW. :)

Julia, these are beautiful pictures. It will be a very different Christmas no doubt, but I'm glad you know they are with you in spirit.
Ah yes you will miss their physical presence but you will know they're there Julia. xx
