# So another Holiday is now in our memories - Link: https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/ - Published: 2009-12-26T03:18:00-07:00 - Author: My Walkabout Christmas 2009. For this holiday I had two nieces and a nephew, all my brothers, two wonderful sister in law’s, and my parents as well as Emily’s parents and friends( all of whom I consider either additional parents/great friends). A good group to spend the day with. Admittedly though, this day does make me melancholy, soberly thoughtful, pensive…. As this day progresses, I catch glimpes of Dad looking distant, with a sad look in his eye. Trudi. It happens to all of us at random moments in time, but on this day it is particularly poignant. So I write this in hopes of alleviating some sadness, and possibly creating a little smile on someone’s face…and nothing does that like seeing a response note left by Santa from little ones letters written and their questions answered…..

I make a killer Sweet ‘tater pie. ### Share this: * [ Email ](https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20So%20another%20Holiday%20is%20now%20in%20our%20memories&body=https%3A%2F%2Fmywalkabout.net%2Fso-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories%2F&share=email) * [Post](https://x.com/share) * [Share on Tumblr](https://www.tumblr.com/share) * [ WhatsApp ](https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/?share=jetpack-whatsapp) * [ Nextdoor ](https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/?share=nextdoor) * [ Threads ](https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/?share=threads) * [[ * [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) * [ Reddit ](https://mywalkabout.net/so-another-holiday-is-now-in-our-memories/?share=reddit) ### Like this: Like Loading…
