I had the BEST christmas gift yesterday. It wasn't something tangible.
My two Son in -Laws fell out 5 - 6 years ago after a silly argument and therefore my two Daughters haven't been able to get together as a family to celebrate Birthdays, Holidays or celebrations. I mean they have always got together - but not with their husbands.
WELL, yesterday I cooked a belated Christmas dinner and our eldest Daughter initiated a get together - in our house ( neutral ground) and it was as though nothing had ever happened. It was WONDERFUL to see the boys chatting together and so from now on we can be a complete family again. I am blessed!!
