This year Christmas was a very nice and calm time of the year. I celebrated it with my family, I had a delightful dinner together with my boyfriend, my sister and her boyfriend and my parents. The food was delicious, as always, and besides that we had a lovely time together watching movies, listening to carols and simply having a nice chat.
Also, on December 16, me, my sister and her best friend went to see the Christmas play at a school just outside my town, in a village of foster kids. It's a modern village created especially for those kids, with German financial support and it pretty much has everything they need. I read a few of the letters they wrote to Santa and they were just asking to see their parents/families...that was heartbreaking. Other than that they are normal kids, extremely cute I may add, that wish for normal things such as toys - the large Teddy Bear was a trend, and of course sweets. Santa was very generous but that was mostly thanks to companies and random independent persons who wanted to contribute to making Christmas a better experience for these kids. We were involved as well and we were nothing but impressed by these wonderful kids. I was happy to see them, they were lovely and innocent and I hope I get to visit them again soon to see what they're doing.
