My lovely Aunt Glenda
Originally uploaded by awilliamsI found this gorgeous photo while going through pictures on my computer. I managed to snap a picture of it when I visited Raleigh a couple of Christmases ago. What a surprise it will be to her when she checks my journal!
Things are a little better in my part of the world. Nieces and nephew are all doing well, and Santa brought my brother-in-law home from South Korea on Christmas Eve. That was quite a good time, actually -- as we got the girls out of the car, we heard Santa shouting "ho ho ho!" in the distance. Kat (oldest niece) was beside herself with delight to see her Dad, and of course my sister was very happy to see her husband. My nephew was born in mid-December, so there was a great introduction to be had as well between father and son.
I spent the two previous Christmases with Aunt Glenda. Though I wasn't able see her this year, I was surrounded by family and memories I will cherish always.
I hope everyone is having a fantastic and warm (even if only in spirit - brr!) new year so far. :)
If you're a friend who now lives far away, know that you're missed.
Much love.
