Christmas came quickly this year, in the flurry of preparing for Elizabeth’s wedding. As always, it was wonderful to have Elizabeth and Matthew home with us, and this year, we waited for them to decorate the Christmas tree. What is it about unwrapping each ornament and finding a special place on a branch? Our Frazier fur was smaller this year, and yet we all said it was the prettiest-shaped tree we ever had. We missed Jaguar peering through the tree’s branches and lying in front of the fire. And we had Stephen in our hearts, especially during these holidays. Thank God for our Christmas traditions, and for each other. (And looking for music from our favorite “Scrooge” movie, I found this number from the stage musical.)
