Chelsey Ever since I can remember, this time of year has brought nothing by JOY. Joy in sipping hot chocolate next to a fire that my Dad built. Joy in squeezing 50+ family members into my grandmother’s small house. Joy in singing Christmas carols alongside my grandfather while my aunt tickles the piano. This year has been pretty tough on my family losing many key family members that really pull us all together during the holidays. Yes, this Christmas will be different, but I know that we need to remember how to keep joy in the season. The special people we will be missing terribly taught us is that finding joy in life around you is what matters most. So I’m determined to keep the joy in the season and know the tiny person joining our family soon surely agrees.
Annie Claire It isn’t hard to spot joy in this season. With two energetic little girls, joy seems to radiate from them at all time. My youngest is starring in her Christmas play while my oldest is excited to practice the holiday song she’ll be performing soon enough. Amongst the joy does come difficulty and a sense of feeling overwhelmed. Overwhelmed with the expectations we put on ourselves. Overwhelmed with the commitments we just can’t say “no” to. Overwhelmed with the changes this particular holiday season brings to my family. The key is to stay thankful and joyful for everything we have and the sweet people we get to share every joy with. I hope you’ll visit SoSis - online or in person - this holiday season and let us share some of our joy with you.
