Christmas time is another hard time for me as a bereaved parent. Our son loved the whole deal. The family time, gifts, the tree, the mysterious parcels, the special food, the camaraderie. It really hits home when I go to buy the gifts and food for Christmas. No need for the special things our child enjoyed. The fact that our son is missing, puts a poignant touch on everything. One positive is that I especially treasure memories made by my children who are still here with us.
