Sunday afternoon our entire family went to a G.R. Ballet production of the Nutcracker. Mark and the kids had attended several times when Steven had a middle school friend who performed in it, but I always seemed to be working. I had various thoughts as we went in with many other family groups, mostly with young children. How many more opportunities like this will we have? Where will the young adults scatter in the next few years? So we enjoyed the ballet, but to me it was a bittersweet time. A reminder to treasure the time we have with family, especially at this special season.
Wishing you all a joyful holiday.
Shalom
Carol
