we listened to this song every Christmas morning when I was growing up... and every year my dad would get misty eyes as he told us that this was his MaMa s favorite Christmas song... my fathers mom (my grandmother) was born on Christmas day, his grandmother (my great grandmother) was born on Christmas eve... my Grandma(er GG as she preferred to be called when her first great grandbaby (kenzie) was born) andmy Grandpa (my mom and Aunt Jo father) got married on christmas.... this time of year gets me rather melancholy and brings back a flood of memories... last Christmas We didnt even put up a tree it was way more than me and the girls could emotionally bare doing it without Jason jus didnt feel right at all... big life changing things we struggled thru but made it thru the past yr and a half have given me a totally different view on things... Jason, my dad and, my grandma and grandpa absolutely loved this time of year and tho they are not physically here with us they are spiritually here with us, and none of them would want us being sad, melancholy, or depressed not at all... if more people would stop and realize that Christmas isnt about presents, it isnt about money, and it isnt about flaunting what you get for Christmas and thinking your better than anyone else!! kids arent goin to remember everything they got for Christmas in 20 yrs, but they will remember the time they spent with you! and comon they wont remember how much you spent on them cuz they have no clue the value of a dollar, but they will hold onto the time you spent with them cuz its called a memory and thats something that never breaks, doesnt need batteries, and making memories with them cost you absolutely nothing but your time... so put down the phone, close the laptop, turn off the tv and make that time theirs.. I am guilty of a lot, I cant change it,Ill never get that time back that instead of other things preoccuping my time I should have been more in tune and focused on my girls Giving them my full attention, I shoulda done a lot of thongs different I know it and I totally own it!! I may have been physically always here for them, but not emotionally always here for them... but not anymore and never again!! and despite many flaws and stupid choices my girls are good kids!! DAMN GOOD KIDS!! pass judgment on me all ya want but DO NOT PASS JUDGEMENT ON MY GIRLS because of my past actions!!! soooo for me and my family CHRISTMAS is about family, its about love, its about family tradition to your children and they will pass on to their children one day, its about enjoying the people in your life and letting them know how important they are to you while they are still with you making memories cause we arent guaranteed a tomorrow and we dont know when the good lord is gonna US home and you dont want to live with the regrets of I shoulda called more often, I shoulda visited more, do they know what they meant to me and how much I love them, did I say I love you enough to them and so on and so forth... tell em now while they are still here and you can still hug them, and make them smile with jus a simple I care about, or I love you, or a you mean so much to mee and jus cause we dont always see eye to eye your special me and even if I may be angry with you always know that I love you. CHRISTMAS is not what present day society has made it into..... when we pass away wether your rich or poor your casket and burial plot are the same size!! bring back the days where it was sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.... BRING BACK MERRY CHRISTMAS.... GOD BLESS AMERICA... BRING BACK THE DAYS WHERE A FAMILY SAT IM THE SAME ROOM ENGAGING AND TALKING TO EACH OTHEdR I EANVREALLY TALKING AND NOT HALF ASS TALKING look up for a half sec and sayin hang on lemme finish this txt.... bring back the days of when you went out to eat as a family you actually hold a conversation with each other instead of wondering if they have WiFi there.... bring back days where kids were kids and girls would play barbies or teacher instead of throwing fits to play games on your phone, bring back the days where when kids were in public they knew not to act up or show their ass cuz they sure as shit if they said they was gonna spank you. better believe theyd find the closest bathroom and follow thru on it... now adays parents are scared of their kids, give in to their kids demands, let them throw tantrums and run wild .... MOST IMPORTANTLY BRING BACK THE TRUE MEANING IF CHRISTMAS... not happy holidays MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS!! Avery Stapleton Hurley Makenzie Welsh Jodie Stapleton Monica Lynch Chris Officer Louella Lynch Jason Allen Hurley Todd Rbw I love you all very much and I absolutely am blessed to have each of you in my life and in soooo many memories over the years good and bad!
