I've had so many "best", it ids hard to decide. But my favorite Xmas was the year my mom came to have Xmas with us. Since I was the only one away from home, she felt she should stay there and be with all of them, plkus she hated leaving home during the winter months because of freezing pipes etc. Going to church Xmas eve , our children were in the choir, and just having Mom with me made that Xmas wonderful. And she stayed for 6 weeks!!!!
