These’s no place like home for the holidays
J.K. Carpenter had his hand on the pulse of America when he wrote this song. No matter how far away you roam-I have lived all over the United States but always tried to make it “home” for the holidays. Home being where my parents lived. Now my children are spread all over, none of them are able to make it home this year, so I started thinking, maybe it would work next year if we start planning now…the thing was, my first thought was that we could all meet in Colorado…at my mother’s house, “home”. I like to think it is the love we have for our family members that keeps this desire going, keeps the home fires burning. This year my husband and I will be alone, but “I’ll be home for Christmas, if only in my dreams.” Merry Christmas everyone!
