You have wonderful Christmas memories. One of these days I will get my daughters to guide me in posting pictures, & then I will be able to share part of my life with you. I was adopted at birth & never doubted for a moment that I was wanted & loved.My mother was the only survivor of a car/train accident that took the lives of her mother, father, uncle, & baby brother when Mother was two. She was raised by both sets of grandparents, who battled for years in court for her custody. I never met any of Mother's grandparents. Dad was an identical twin & the two boys were the only children in the family. They were raised to thrive on fun, laughter, & close contact with the family. Dad & my uncle served in WWII & returned home to start a feed & grain elevator with their father & eventually built a second grain elevator in a small town a few miles south of us. My favorite Christmas memories are of Christmas Eve at my grandfather's house. It wasn't the gifts that excited me...it was the feeling of love & togetherness that surrounded me like a warm comfy blanket. What I remember best is the image of my dad & his twin standing on either side of their father in front of the fireplace warming their hands & backsides & laughing & teasing one another. To me, even as a child, the spirit of Christmas was found in a joyful gathering of family around the dining table, with a special prayer of blessing offered by my grandfather, & lots of pleasant conversation as we shared a meal.Kim Stanley Lawyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15197263107544542190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19531357.post-26487726230766437612012-12-19T17:20:36.874-05:002012-12-19T17:20:36.874-05:00Thank you for sharing these stories of your parent...Thank you for sharing these stories of your parents and grandparents.

That makes the old video both quaint and sad. Nice photos of your folks. Even poor people kept at least one good set of clothes back then. I don't even have a dress pair of slacks or dress shirt anymore. It gets too expensive and frustrating once you get above a 46.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.com
