DREAMS

A beautiful red headed little girl wakes up on Christmas morning and runs to the living room excited to see what Santa Claus has brought for her. Her mommy and daddy watch the excitement on her face as she turns to look at them. "When can I open my presents and help u to open yours?" she asks excitedly. Her daddy smiles at her and tells her "in a moment". The little girl runs to her daddy in excitement and gives him a big hug telling him she loves him and give him a big kiss on his cheek. He smiles down at her and tells her "now u may open your gifts". She opens one gift at a time and with each she has a smile on her face and a few giggles. She helps her mommy and daddy open their gifts and is excited to well them anoit the gifts that she picked out or made.

As beautiful as it is all of a sudden it is all gone the beautiful red headed little girl the Christmas tree and the joy that was experienced and I awaken remembering it is only just a dream. Because it has been 7 years since this was the scene in our house. 7 years since we had that hug and kiss from our little girl. 7 years since celebrating Christmas was a happy occasion all done up with lights on the house and a Christmas tree in the living room decorated with care by a little girl, her mommy and her daddy.
