The best part about Christmas is spending the season with our loved ones. A lot of people are not given the chance to spend Christmas with their family. I am lucky to have mine and I could not ask for more🥰

The most amazing thing about the Christmas season is spending quality time with family and friends.   With several days off, we have the time to relax and enjoy our children, parents, relative and friends.    Enjoy the holiday time everyone!!!

The holiday season for me has always been about my family.  There have been times when we struggled financially and had to come up with inventive ways to provide Christmas gifts.  One year my children and I made some of the gifts for each other.  The best gift that lasted for years was a Crokinole board.  My grandmother had taught me to play and I got to teach my children how to play.  There were many arguments over who was the better shot but there was enough laughter to overcome any sibling rivalry.  The board finally broke but our family is still going strong through the hard times and the good.

Dear PM Community,

I love the holidays for many reasons.

The main reason is that the season leads to reflection; for the year that is

ending and more importantly, for the year ahead.

This makes me hopeful.
