Yup it is coming up to Christmas I actually do love Christmas very much, not for all the gifts it does not interest me that much I just like to see family and friends together that is the most important to me. I miss being with my family, this will be the 12th Christmas I have not seen them and it is tugging very hard on my heart strings.
Family and close friends mean the world to me, I would be lost without them I really would, my family here is my daughter, I want to make her feel the festive season like it is meant to be, not like what I had as a child as it was not the best. When I lived in Canada I felt the festive season like it was really meant to be, it was how I had always dreamt it to be, family, smiles seeing the innocence of a child's heart and smile that plasters their face, not from the gifts but from knowing where they are at that moment nothing can break or shatter them, their innocence is protected their fantasies can run wild and no one will break that.
I remember one Christmas with my daughter when she told me she could not sleep she wanted to stay awake to see Santa, needless to say she feel asleep, on my way to her bedroom I kicked my toe trying to muffle my own screams of pain I dropped one of her gifts, she sat up in bed rather quickly and started calling my name, kicking her gifts under the bed I went to her.
" Mum mum I just heard Santa land on the roof" she was so excited and she swore she heard him, she was not going back to sleep until we investigated, we put on slippers and jackets and went outside in the show to see where Santa was, apparently he had already gone and my daughter seen him and his reindeer's flying away, it is a memory I will not forget and this year I plan to bring some innocence back to my Christmas this year for the adults and the children, who is free for Christmas and wants to come over and relive their childhood ?
