The joys of a large family

Can you imagine the fun we have on Christmas Eve, all gathered to break bread and open gifts before attending the children’s evening Christmas Mass? Most of our children and grands enjoy their stockings best of all. Each recipient has their own box of gifts that will be distributed tomorrow. Glad we live close. Notice my small tree. Since we will be opening gifts virtually via a Zoom gathering this year, my sister gave me this tree with ornaments containing pics of all family members. It just won’t be the same but safety first.
