Traditions ......

Family traditions are so important

they are our history and become part of our roots

and some of the best and most fun traditions

are the ones we create at Christmas time

 

Of course we have some of the ones that most families have

Christmas eve pj's, can't go into the den until Mom and Dad are awake

watch certain movies, make Christmas goodies.....

 

And I have often wondered if I did enough traditions

I sure hoped so!

 

I learned last year don't change the tradition of

"Breakfast Before" casserole.....a few let me know that

I shouldn't be changing that one

 

the other day Jacquelyn and I were talking about something

and I don't even know how we got on the subject of traditions

but Jacquelyn told me it's the little ones that mean so much

to her. I asked her what and she said you know how on

Christmas morning we get to drink orange juice

out of the "fancy" glasses.

I just loved hearing that........so it wasn't any of the big things I

was doing with my kids, it was the little things that meant so much

to them. So create traditions for your family...it's important,

it means something to them as they become adults......I'm now enjoying watching my kids create their own traditions!

 

 

So here's to "fancy" glasses!
