its all over...

christmas...we take WEEKS even MONTHs to prepare for it.. presents.. new clothes..cookies.. food... decorations...... then, it comes.. THE 25th of december.. and as soon as it comes, its gone.. and we're left to WAIT another whole year before the same regime starts again.. as tiring and bewildering as it may be, therre is a part in each and every one of us that somehow rather enjoys it.. enjoying 3 hours of standing in the hot kitchen 4 four days makng four types of cookies then taking a quick bathe and rush of to do christmas shopping.. enjoying the idea of listing out all 23 of ur cousins' name and crossing them off as u find the perfect christmas present for each one... but now.. sitting here..in this post-christmas glow..dead tired from yesterdays party..i have to WAIT another whole year to enjoy this painfully draining yet oddly fun time of year...
merry christmas yall... to all my darling cousins, angie, alvin, calvin.. adeline and adrian.. carrie, carol and don.. kevin, kath, devinna and carlson.... baba, bubu, edgar, edmund and eddie....and of course who could actualli 4get about the latest addition to our already large family, miss eliza margaret.. my late big mummy's namesake....... let the good times roll.. time and tide mite change.. so might pur level of maturity and stature.. but i promise.. every christmas, the memores are fresh.... like they just happened yeaterday.. and the love, as strong as it should be no matter how far any of us have gone..either in body or on mind and feeling.... deep down inside,.we'l be together forever... the way it was.... thats what big mummy would have wanted.. thats certainly what i want.......
