Blog City Prompt: Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmastime.” ― Laura Ingalls Wilder
Talk about childhood memories.

My days believing in Santa Claus could be painted by Norman Rockwell. The five of us kids standing at the top of the second-floor stairs. Each with a silver candle holder with lit candles. We were ready for our close-ups. My family is quite into photography. Our family movies have been digitalized. I played the movies for my granddaughters when they were around seven. About a minute of silence when Meghan looked at me.

"Grammy, when is the sound coming on?"

I loved everything about Christmas. The best part was the fresh tree that smelled heavenly. We had bubble lights and tinsel we placed on the tree one strand at a time.

I recreated some of the memories with my son and daughter. They passed it on to their children.

I am blessed and thank God for every blessing bestowed upon me.
