this would be the second christmas i spend without my sister without seeing her for 2 years.
my mom didn't know...
this would be the first christmas she would spend without her Dad alive and with us on christmas day.
my neighbor didn't know.....
she'd be spending christmas without her husband, who died of cancer 6 months after their wedding.
my foster mom didn't know....
she'd be spending christmas alone after her husband suddenly died on new years day 3 years ago of blood poisoning after admitting himself to the hospital for routine testing.
my other neighbors didn't know.....
this would be the second christmas they spend alone after their son was shot and killed at the age of 15 at midnight at the trolley stop just weeks before christmas.

I know - this will be my 34th year without my father being alive and with us for christmas
I know - this will be my fifth year without my mother being alive and with us.
I know - that I won't be home for christmas this year, coz I'm working in africa
But I also know - both of my parents are in heaven, I'll go home next month, I will have a new wife next month, and the world keeps going. life don't stop. My dad died on dec 21st, when I was 15. I stayed mad at God for a long long time. Just one of those things ya gotta outgrow I guess. I'm thankful for the time I had with him, and the time I had with my mother, and for the life they gave me. Sorry, I think I got lost there somehow...
Almost forgot...Merry Christmas!
