story people tuesday: season of joy


"She asked me when the season of joy was supposed to end & I said I didn't really think there was an exact date, so we left the tree up till June that year."

My mother still has her Christmas decorations up, sans the tree, of course.  But the countless angels, snowmen, rugs, sheets, comforters, and pillows are all out, proclaiming it's still the joyous holiday season.  I’m thinking I should be concerned.

2 - Scotty: I believe I'm going to have to sit her down and have a talk. I keep waking up thinking its Christmas morning, and then I realize it’s not and I’m unimaginably disheartened when I see that Santa didn’t come. You would think after the first few mornings I would catch on, right? I can’t go on living with this kind of disappointment. It’s like finding out that there’s NO Santa Claus! Wait! What, there’s no Santa?! (Comment this)
