Holidays provide much needed time off.
Any way to get some days off of school and time with family is a win for me. A holiday that is during the time of year they are most needed is Christmas. It is a time to catch up on sleep, catch up on assignments, the time of year you get to see family members that live far away. Growing up in Southern California, the only other family around was my dad's third cousin's family. They are close in age to my sister and I, and we met up at most once a year. Christmas was always a time spent with my mom's parents, with her sisters and their families. Ruth's family lives in Georgia, Chi-sun lives there as well. Chisoo and her family live in Northern California, and we are the closest with them. Whether it is my late aunt's family from Georgia driving all the way to California, or taking turns driving the 5 freeway, Christmas is the holiday my family actually sees each other. When I was younger, my family even went to Michigan where my dad grew up, staying at his sister's house. It would be nice to not have to travel hundreds of miles to see family, but it means that there is no time left to argue or hold grudges, that we just focus on enjoying the limited time we have together. Happy Holidays. Love, Lovebug

I love how you write your post just like a poem. It is really fun to read, especially about your trip to visit your family. That sounds amazing and fantastic. I’m gonna do the same thing, too; we gonna go to Seattle to visit our cousin for Christmas and have fun there. Can’t wait to read your next blog

I loved seeing the map of how your family is all spread out across the country! It really helps visualize how all over your family is, thus making the getting together at Christmas even cooler!
