It came without ribbons!
It came without tags!
It came without packages, boxes, or bags!
That's dramatic I know. But it feels that way. Christmas is coming without any of the fanfare due to covid. There is much I will miss about it.
However.
I did wish for a gentle holiday. Christmas will be quiet without fanfare. I will celebrate Christmas Mass tomorrow morning remotely. And thank God for the bounty of a warm safe place where we won't get our beloveds sick.
Christmas will come on schedule, though we may celebrate somewhat late with the traditional trappings of the holiday. But come Lord Jesus... do we ever need you now.
Christmas, like Home, is where you are who you are with, not on a calendar. Love you.
