This picture with the older couple reminds me of such happy past times when my grandmother was alive and later when she was not but my mother was and my father, and we had at our house a very large Christmas Eve dinner and lunch on the Christmas day.
They would come, also my sister with her husband and son and my brother with his wife. I had children then and it was a very happy time.
But we are where God puts us so we must accept each season in life and be happy with what we have.
I haven't with me my grandmother, mother and father but I have my own children and we have happy times as we are. And we give thanks to God.
So, let's be happy.
Now I will post here some work of Trevor Mitchell which picture so well the cosiness of Christmas in family, that wonderful comfort of after lunch when people was alredy well fed and just seat relaxing and enjoying the happiness of having a family.
Happy times.
Time goes by and new generations replace old ones, now it's me who is becoming older and my children are adult. These are new times but can be happy too, so it's such a joy to see Christmas approaching and doing all the preparations.
Thanks be to God.
