Christmas 2009

For Christmas Andy & I dress as Mr. & Mrs. Claus for our parish Christmas Party at Organ Stop Pizza. This was the second year we did it & hope to keep doing it for many more. We also went & decorated the trees around Angel's grave. Hadrien loves running around all the babies/kids headstones & I'm sure they enjoy the company. Hadrien also enjoyed opening his presents Christmas morning although we have more video than pictures of that day.

Family

The family endures because it offers the truth of mortality and immortality within the same group. The family endures because, better than the commune, kibbutz, or classroom, it seems to individualize and socialize its children, to make us feel at the same time unique and yet joined to all humanity, accepted as is and yet challenged to grow, loved unconditionally and yet propelled by greater expectations. Only in the family can so many extremes be reconciled and synthesized. Only in the family do we have a lifetime in which to do it. -Letty Cottin Pogrebi
