This was our second Christmas together 🎄
It may not be our first, but it’s still just as special in a lot of ways because it is still a first in a lot of ways… We spent all day at my parents house with my sister’s family a couple guests my parents invited over. It’s always lovely to see Desmond getting along so well with my family and friends. Him never seeming uncomfortable or awkward anymore because he’s familiar with and liked by everyone by this point. This is in stark contrast to last year when he seemed visibly uncomfortable and it took him a while to settle in and get used to everyone. Much of the same company from last year was around this time and he adjusted in no time. That was wonderful to see! Our third Christmas next year will most definitely be even more special than the two preceding it, because it’ll be yet another first for us in a bigger and more special way. But how special each Christmas may be doesn’t matter in the long run. I’m just happy we have each other to share the holidays together now.
