Christmas Magic revisited

Merry Christmas, all.  What an amazing life I have... surrounded by so many positive, wonderful people.  This year I experienced the best Thanksgiving I've ever had.  I wasn't able to travel and visit family, and I was looking forward to - for once - having Christmas at home.  My daughter moved with me this year... long awaited, on my end ;) and she just turned 18 just days ago... but this was my first Christmas, spent at my own home, with her, while in her home too.  It was warm and fuzzy.  And while she missed her mom, and her siblings... and as I missed my parents (all four) and my siblings... we made it a blockbuster together.  Not much in the way of gifts this year... except for our love and dedication to building each other up and helping each other achieve.
It was spent with friends... "family".  The one we've created, outside of ourselves.  The Stanley's and Shirley-Moore's, some of the finest people, and my closest friends.  A blessed evening; shared with wine, diner, and pleasant friendship.  Love.  Love.  Love.
