During the holidays I think about the traditions my family keeps and the memories we have made, especially in a year as this. Almost all of the memories are centered around food, music, church, and my mom’s skills of making everything beautiful and everybody feeling special. If you are like me, you relate to Cindy Lou-Who and find yourself singing “Where are you Christmas, why cant I find you?”
We may not be able to join with all of our loved ones this holiday season, but we can still make an effort to create new memories, traditions, and to pass
Hope, Love, Joy and Peace
on to our families and friends. Duluth Mom is here to equip, inspire, and encourage you to do just that. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Be well and stay safe.
