A New Era...

Well, suprise surprise... like a shootout goal that wins Canada the game on New Years Eve; the holidays came through for me in a big way this year!
Now I'd like to start out by apologizing for the negative feelings some got from my last blog. I wasn't trying to promote the "Bah Humbug" but was simply trying to explain the differences in the way things were this year. The feeling that the magic was going to be harder to find.
Harder to find; YES. Impossible; NO.
So with a little faith and a lot of effort on everyone's part, it was delightfully divergent. Out of tradition, yet parallel in some contemporary way and completely fabulous.
I still can't understand why; no matter how stressed you get preparing for the holidays, or how short your visits are, it always feels like it was totally worth it in the end.
Oh well, I don't need to understand. I just need to continue to believe, have faith that it will keep happening and be thankful when it does!!
