Tis the Season
December is here, and if youāre operating to the calendar year, itās a time when all your efforts for the past eleven months are coming to an end ā a time of final pressures and final celebrations, and a time to prepare for new beginnings.
Without fail, no matter what Iām juggling, whenever I see a father and his daughter navigating the season Iām overwhelmed with a stream of cherished memories ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā āWhat do you mean you donāt want to have your picture taken? But Sarah, weāve been in line for thirty minutes. No please donāt cry; heās really jolly, and heāll give you a candy cane. Ok, okā¦ please just stop crying. Up you goā. Excuse us, sorry about that.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā āYes, Santa Claus is coming soon. Want to go back and see him. No, please donāt cry. Ok, get down, you are getting too heavy.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āYes it is very pretty. Please donāt touch. Donāt touch. Ok, put it backā.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āHeās a holiday helper ā no really. Here, take this and put it in the kettle. Ok, let me help, up you go. Itās the season for giving, say Happy Holidays.ā
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā āI have no idea what to get your mom, weāll figure it out later. Letās get home and turn on the lights. Yes, they are very pretty ā Tis the season.ā
By my count there is twenty-eight days left to accomplish everything still needed to be done before a new year resets the clock ā make sure itās memorable.
