I remember after my grandmother had passed away (she was dying around Christmas time) that I lost my appreciation for the holiday. Watching her waste away kind of tainted my spirit. This was especially hard because I had Christian. I had to put on a happy face for him. Of course I loved him and the time we spent together around the holidays, but for some reason, I couldn't get passed the associations I had made with Christmas and the decline of my grandmother.
Richie has regenerated my Christmas spirit. I'm excited about the traditions again. I sing along to the music and I feel the joy that people are expected to feel this time of the year. I'm lucky to have him in my life for so many reasons.
I should get going. I need to hang some lights around the windows, wrap some presents and defrag my hard drive. 'Tis the season.
I love you this day and always.
