Denise and I were talking earlier about how sad and depressing Christmas would be this year. No family, turkey, presents, songs...no ugly Christmas sweaters! While Denise was getting down about this I simply turned to her and said "We're not skipping Christmas! We're downsizing!"
Christmas is what you make it and although we couldn't be with our friends and family, we are thinking of you and love you very much!
This year was a slight stray from the norm. New friends to spend it with and new ways to celebrate. Happy Holidays from Taiwan! xo
Twas the season of Christmas
And all through Jhubei
Not a snowflake did fall
No Christmas songs would play.
Our fingers were crossed
Our spirits were held high
In hopes that our packages
Soon would arrive.
Christmas morning came
But our packages did not
Ebenezer Scrooge owns Fedex
In customs our packages were caught.
But Christmas does not come
In packages, boxes, or bows
It is the feeling inside
This is what everyone knows.
Santa did not lose our address
Just a slight delay
The postal service is no match
For Santa's reindeer and sleigh.
Our Christmas dinner was non-traditional
No turkey, pie, or stuffing
But celebrations with new friends
Until the wee hours of morning.
Before shutting our eyes
We turned on our skype
Sent love to our family and said,
"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"
