#December #christmas #family

There is nothing more magical then the month of December. Yes, it comes with mad rushing around. But its when the magic happens, spending time with family kids excited squeals christmas morning. Sitting down around the table for the big meal.  I’m popping on a christmas movie in the afternoon but not watching it because you fall asleep from a full tummy.

Packaging flying everywhere. Hunting for a screwdriver because the kids present needs batteries.

Its all the little things that matter the most.

I still vividly remember being that excited child on Christmas Eve. As we get older we recreate those fond memories we had with our own children and Grandchildren.

The bit that is not so pleasant is the month of January when you look at the bank balance lol.

The smell of christmas food cooking is the best the spices cinnamon. 

The warmth of love. 

I know that not every family has that. Which is a huge shame .I know growing up in a family that had very little money but there was always food and home made presents at christmas my experience of them times is always the heart of family. 

I do think as kids we drove our parents mad at christmas fighting over board games and who got to pull the cracker first. Which one got to be the one to open the sitting room door first on christmas morning.

The it’s not fair I wanna go first that echos through the house that is life and that is family. 

The present run around all our families home

That I hope I created in My book Emo The Emotional Elf .

The essence of christmas.

Hope you have a beautiful Day today 💗 

Much love Faye
