Everyone wants to contribute to the Christmas Memory Box! |
Usually on Christmas Eve after dinner, we would pull out this decorated box that was adorned with our holiday art work from grade school. Inside, there would be sheets of paper with our names and dates where we would jot down what was so special about that particular Christmas that we wanted to remember forever.
You would think it was all about what gifts you got that year. However, it was so much more than that. One note was about a turkey that my grandmother, an experienced cook, made for Christmas dinner that we couldn’t eat. It was the year of vegetables and no one said a word about it. My grandmother is no longer here, but I always remember what a wonderful Christmas we had that year together.
You may think a Christmas Memory Box can’t possibly sweeten your Christmas, but I promise you it will!
