Holi-Daze

I'm really, really not looking forward to the holidays this year for, well, reasons...but here they are, ready or not. And even though I just started my Christmas shopping yesterday, less than one week away from the holiday itself, I'm still not in the mood. Yet for some reason, this weekend consisted of the Christmas spirit vomiting all over me.

A visit with Santa? Check.

Wrapping presents? Check.

Building a gingerbread village? Check.

Because, you want to know the truth? It's not about me anymore...it's about what I can do for those who come after me. Because they're the ones who will bring the hope and optimism to the future. So if I have to sit through yet another uncomfortable family gathering...so be it. Because...

...and...

...they're going to fix it. If for no other reason than I won't allow them to have anything less than the world has to offer. 

I love you, my sweeties. ❤️
