A New Moon

This year my holidays have had to become new in so many ways. With the passing of my Dad a few years ago and my mom about to go into assisted living things have had to have changed. The old traditions are no longer feasible and it is quite the paradigm shift to leave the wafting memory of childhood behind and know those times will never be again. The new challenge is to craft new traditions that meet my and Mr. Charles’s wants and also allow some new family interactions. This year was a beginning. We spent some good time before Christmas with family in Savannah and are home now to spend our special days together. It is now a new moon and under her growing light I hope to begin new traditions and celebrations of life and living with family of the heart.
