Hello Readers,
With just 1 day left for
Christmas, I am sure the Christmas spirit would be soaring high in each one of
you! How is the Christmas tree coming along? Know what, this time of the year
always brings back memories from my childhood. Would you like to know my
fondest Christmas memory?
When I was a kid, I would spend
the entire day before Christmas decorating the Christmas tree with my sisters. Those
were the times when one did not find Christmas decorations available in the
market and if they were available, they certainly weren’t cheap. We would make
confetti by cutting coloured sheet of papers into small squares. We used to put
cotton all over the tree to make it look like it snowed, because hey, how can
it be Christmas without snow? We would buy small, inexpensive gifts for our
parents which they had absolutely no use of but were always very happy to receive
them. I remember, our mom would pamper us with ‘Archie comics’. Every Christmas
morning, we would find a set of three, neatly packed Archie comics under the
Aerocaria plant (Indian version of the Christmas tree), and that would make us
the happiest trio in the entire world. We would read funny excerpts from the
comic books to our parents and would laugh our hearts out.
See, Christmas is about
spending time with our family and making memories. Memories so sweet that every
time we think of them; it brings a big broad smile on our face – just like its
bringing one to mine right now!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Enjoy the edition!
