Christmas Eve eve baileys in hand
Emma Wildman I’m done done 🤣 cheers 🥂 I’m raising a glass to all my family and friends and blowing kisses to heaven to all our loved ones up there celebrating , Christmas is a holy time it’s about the joy of giving and our Christmas trees represents the light in the darkness , my aunty Mary Gates visited me a few months back and said Alice I want to see a tree up this year as Jimmy Harrington knew how much you loved Xmas as I sit and watch my little tree twinkle bearing in mind I normally have mammoth of a real tree that consists of a annual trip to elevdon Forest , I’m sitting looking at a bare twig Aldi tree Allyson Childs-murphy 🤣 I laugh at what I put you through that day to get it but I think of my little boy in heaven and I sit with warmth and love in my heart and for me this year to sit and feel anything after such a loss is a Xmas miracle it’s doesn’t mean 😢 I don’t love him , I miss him every hr of the day , my gingerbread bread decoration collection still sits in the loft this year I brought all new it now belongs to Bobbi Harrington for when she gets a home and family and we laughed the other day as when I’m gone I told her I my gingerbread collection is to go up every year and she is to dedicate a room and tree just to house my collection I’ve collected worIdwode for 27 years but isnt t that what Christmas represents the nostalgic of the years that have passed the handmade baubles made by your kids and the memories they hold every time you unbox them and smiles and the tears of the years that have gone by .
I know there is something greater out there what it is I don’t know perhaps it’s hope and a belief we are off to a better place but I’m thankful and blessed to have faith ❤️
plz know that anyone that is struggling this season , hard times will pass trust me and anyone that is losing or spending your 1st Xmas without a loved one just take it hr by hr you will miss them and grieve them for a life time but you learn to live in a different way still put out that plate for them light a candle buy there favourite sweets still and all enjoy them all together
And never be ashamed to reach out if you are struggling so enjoy all your time with your loved ones time is precious it can’t be bought or replaced
I’m sending love to you all GODBLESS love us Harringtons ❤️
