Even with weather and sickness, everyone made it back to Pender for the Karlen Christmas. Jaima and Marshall were kind enough to cook the prime rib and Mom got out Nana's dishes (which the kids used).
We had grasshoppers and exchanged gifts. We sat around the living room and opened presents. We laughed. We received generous gifts. Hopefully, the kids realize how fortunate we are. One of Jacki's son asked why Nana and Pop gave them such a nice gift. Jacki talked about Nana and Pop came from nothing and have worked so hard to get what they have and they wanted to share it with those they love. I think that is a very good message.
