it was my mothers favourite time of year . so i still hold it very dear .. we used to decorate the the tree .. and drink eggnog together .. those memories last forever .. wed decorate the whole room .. with handmade decorations .. and mum would sure we each choose a gift for each of us .. fives presents in all . always things we needed in some way .. lots of arty things . one year my brother bought me a novel on horses .. i almost cried with joy .. my oldest bro i caled o him o always gave me trendy clothes to wear .. and i remember all of us .. pooling ur money to get mum jewellry .. and perfume ..
such happy times together .. with the cats messing with the christmas tree .. but all i have now are memories she is long gone ...
