I am not suggesting that I have the perfect family. We don't see each very often; we don't live near each other. Getting together at Christmas is an important element to maintaining family relationships. As my family's children get older, potentially we won't be spending holidays together so that they can be at home. I hope we can push that off as long as possible. For now, I comfort myself with a little Perry Como:
"For taking thought of Wisdom is the perfection of prudence. He who for her sake keeps vigil shall quickly be free from care, because she makes her own rounds, seeking those worthy of her ... and meets them with all solicitude."

Tripping About
As Christmas approaches, I am remarkably in good spirits. This is a bit of a change from the last couple years. I think it has a lot to do with getting more sleep and not working every hour of the day. Who knows for sure? We will be traveling again for the holidays (we always travel for Christmas and New Year) and we will be stopping at various family members' homes as we go. I read this blog post about being with family at the holidays and I hope this won't be the case for our visits.
