Ghosts of Christmases Past


I did a couple of gratitude pictures along the way and they just came naturally. Cozy Christmases were still fresh in my mind with the candles, fireplaces, egg nogs, yorkshire puddings, presents, stockings, anticipation, gluttony, and just sitting around with real close family (and an added orphan or two).

Christmas isn't like that anymore and being that I am the elder now it could be me who isn't creating them...in that old-fashioned way...because a) I don't have a fireplace b) I don't have a large bank account and c) I have had trouble following tradition just because it is tradition.

But sometimes I really miss the elders who were my elders and who were really a huge part of Christmas for me.
