me i miss my grandmom she was always the one that could make me stand tall and up for what was right this is the time of year i miss her the most.i miss her cooking her friendship and her answers to all my problems
This is the first Christmas in many years that I won't have my sweet 18 year old son with me for Christmas. He was crying today on the phone because he's missing his little sisters too...especially his little sister "stinky" as he calls her. He's a wonderful brother and a great son. He is the "mama's boy" in the family. I miss him so much...I miss the smile he gives me and the "I love you mom". Great! Now I made MYSELF cry!
As every holiday since 93....miss my Mom and the last two years my Dad....Mom always was the one that held the family get togethers and decorated every window, every wall, every plant...even her cat! Cooked some of the wierdest dishes (most of the edible)....
It would have to be my deceased wife. We did so many things together and she was such a big part of my life. This is my second Christmas without her and this one seems to be easier than last Christmas.
My my, somehow this is something I just cant get away from, 1st if you dont want to cry dont read more. I have lost alot this year, 2006 has tested who I really am, It starts with my granny passing late in 05, that was tough, then my Mom in Feb, 3rd, 06, I have my family across the state, but Christmas is still Christmas and my Mom is spending Christmas with the reason we have Christmas, Jesus Christ. You might think I am too spiritual, I say na. I know for a fact their is a heaven, I believe I have almost been their. Well have a great day my CS friends, Brad A.

these are all great post glad to know we all have that one person that has made a mark on our lives . as long as there in our hearts there here in sprit
My dad passed when I was 10 years old, Two days before Christmas. I was his pet, and although it will be 37 years he is gone this year, he still lives here in my heart.
I will be missing my mother and father. My mom died in February and dad eight years ago. It is so hard not to have them to talk to, especially went something happens. They started out as my parents, later on my friends, then they became my children, and now they are physically gone, but their spirit is still around.
This season reminds me of how they were when we were children, decorating of the house and lawn. Every year dad would get sand, and fill the front yard. On one side of the yard was the manger that lit up, the other side was the Santa sign dad painted, choir, miniature French quarter lights. Then under the porch was the angel hanging from the light fixture, the Santa and the snowman that lit up. The house being white brink veneer with pink mortar, a sting of red Christmas lights hung around the eave. But on the front of the porch to the peak was blue Christmas lights and in the middle of this was the cross mom made from the wood, styrofoam egg cartons, and miniature blinking lights. Mom would put a big speaker outside and play nothing, but Christmas music, she is the one that gave me the love of Christmas. In the windows were cut outs of angels that were of aluminum foil. On the door hung the big plastic Santa face. Through the double hung window of the living you could see the Christmas tree decorated with all the colored glass ornaments, the tinsel, and the lights. Anyone that knocked on the door was welcomed in the house for a meal, a couple of drinks, and some good conversation.
