We got to visit our favorite Nursing Home again with my Dad and Mom as well as Bart's parents. Our Pastor has made it a point to have each of us sharing Christmas morning with those who are often forgotten. Bart thought he was coming down with a cold and stayed home: ( Kira was shy here and there but most of the time- she graciously loved on her new friends. Kids are such a joy to have at the nursing home! We walked up and down the halls singing carols and visiting along the way. This building is the "new" version of the Columbine East, where I used to work. I love bumping into old staff and wish Kira and I stopped in more often. The Saunders have great voices and are always so willing to share Christmas with these folks too. Maybe some of you will consider making a new tradition to visit a local Nursing Home over the Holidays. If you have a special pet they are often welcome if they are leashed and up to date with their shots: )
Afterwards we had brunch at our house and Bart's sister and family joined us. We had a nice day visiting and Kira opened up presents throughout the day. Christmas gatherings were just beginning as the rest of Bart's family arrives on the 26th.
