It took several years, but I finally realized that the drama was not fun. I wasn't sure how this year would go, but knew we had the option of getting back into that smallish car if necessary. Thankfully, we didn't have to. Of course, all the key players were not present--only 3 out of 7 siblings there. It also helps that my kids are now adults and have clearer vision when it comes to my family than I do.Doozyannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08090601905887166306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7702708623174432686.post-76022751761911189322009-12-30T07:42:21.037-08:002009-12-30T07:42:21.037-08:00What a lovely gathering of happy people!

I no longer celebrate in any traditional way, but I still get my joy and I remember when my holidays looked more like yours. Both ways have much in their favor.
