My mom goes crazy around Christmas time. So one night at supper my mom came up with the plan to go out and get a Christmas supper. This was ever before thanksgiving. Anyway I said I had plans and my dad kicked me under the table, which meant if he had to go so did I. so afer supper we all went in the car and got the “perfect tree.” My mom takes what seems like two hours picking out the “perfect tree” or the tree that she thinks is perfect. She found the “perfect tree” and then my dad was happy and we stuffed in the car and went home. I was thinking this Christmas would be one that we didn’t do everything normal because grandma sick, but no this Christmas is even more packed with traditions than ever before.
Grandma is not really sick she is just getting to that age. I remember when we would sit on the porch looking at the stars it was cold and she would hold me tight. Now I was sitting next to her in the nursing home and holding her hand tight. It was hard to see her not even remember my name anymore. Even though we still have many traditions this year to do going to grandmas for thanksgiving dinner was not one of them!
