Merry Christmas To All My ActiveRain Friends In 2025
Today is Christmas, and Christmas has always been a day my wife and I have spent with our two sons, but now that my sons no longer live in CT we have had to get a little creative in celebrating Christmas.
My youngest son and his wife now live in Manassas, VA. and drove to CT last Friday, and were able to be at the family Christmas party on Saturday. They normally alternate Christmas Eve and Christmas between us, and his wife's parents. However, this year his wife's parents had to go to Florida, so we get to have them for both days.
We are getting ready right now to have our traditional Christmas meal with them of stuffed jumbo shrimp, filet mignon, and twice baked potatoes. Normally after our meal we FaceTime with my oldest son, and my gorgeous granddaughter, Elizabeth who live in Bonney Lake, WA. and FaceTiming we opened Christmas present we sent to each other. However, this year we did it in the morning and it was just as special. This is not the same as all of us being together, but it is still special in a different way.
Here in ActiveRain we also have a different kind of relationship, but in many ways it is also a family in its own special way. So I would like to take this time to say thank you to all of you for your support during this past year. This year presented different challenges, however, whatever the challenge we still managed to make it a special year no matter what.
ActiveRain is a special community because all of you have made it so. So in this time and season of joy, I want to say thank you for your friendship and making me feel like a part of your lives. I hope that I have made you feel the same.
I hope this Christmas is a very joyful and special one.
Merry Christmas To All My ActiveRain Friends In 2025.
