No matter what happens, be true to your past and keep your traditions.

They are more important than ever.

Trust that everything, after all of this, will be okay.

The snow (or rain) falls and the grass, the flowers and the trees grow stronger.

Watch the movies.

Eat the cookies.

Decorate the tree last.

Wrap and hide the presents even though they’re old…

Put out cookies and milk for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

Read the stories.

Share the tales.

We need to hold on to the habits of prior generations and keep your traditions alive for future family members to enjoy. Happy Christmas Eve…and to all a good night!
