Mom's place had a Christmas party. Me, Justin and the boys went and my aunt Marsha and grandmother Dot came to enjoy Christmas carols and some yummy appetizers. Mom did really well. She sat and stayed with us at the table. A few crying spells here and there, but once Dot and Marsha showed up she could stop crying. She keep saying "my family, my family!" I think she realized we were all here to be with her. It's never easy to see her cry. I can't help but try and hold my tears back. When it was time to go we all said our goodbyes with many hugs and kisses. She started to walk to the door and said "let's go kids!" Justin hugged her and she said, "goodbye Brian" It was cute, but equally sad. It's hard really understand what she is going through and what she knows, but I have to think she has more going on in her brain then she can tells us.
