Christmas feels different to me this year. Is it just me? How does today feel to you?

I'm so sorry. This was my second Christmas since losing mine. She was always so excited about Christmas, Santa, decorations, all of it. Missing her made me want to do it a little more this year but I got started oto late. We still had a really good day - husband and kids picked up the slack.

Yeah the one thing I did do was attempt the cutout cookies she did. I found her recipe but it was very sparse in the directions. But they turned out great. So I'm glad I'll still have those. Apparently cream of tartar is what gave it that special acidic "Christmas feel" I've always wondered about over the years.
