Lesa Moemeka from Rocky Hill , CT testify us a coup d’oeil of what Christmas means to her .
" This is my rank best-loved time of year and decorating the tree with my 8 year old son is a must . All our ornaments have been collected over the years and we have a ' more is more ' coming with a turn . There is usually a rife coloration , which for this year is red and is enunciate here in the berry spike . Excess ornamentation are placed in outsize clear vases to enhance the decor .

Finalement ! I have been struggling with my normally ever present Christmas spirit this twelvemonth . I had to delve deep to pull it out for my darling family . Meaning , hours of Christmas carols on iTunes Radio , a thunder fireplace , and mugs of hot chocolatey marshmallow good . I threw in a little prayer for practiced measure as well . My sister son bosom me close and order " Mommy , I love and appreciate all you do for me . " How could I not have Christmas cheer after that ? I just LOVE being his mummy . WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS ! "
