Season’s Greetings

I love Christmas, always have – you may love the holiday or the break – but the season gives us the great opportunity for several things:

i)    reconnect with our families and loved ones
ii)    take a breather & rest
iii)    watch sport
iv)    go on holidays
v)    focus on our spiritual selves

This Christmas is much more special than maybe any I have ever had – this is because it is my first Christmas as a father. This is a whole new journey now for my wife and I. We are really thinking about the kind of Christmas we want to create for our son. What family traditions to we want to make part of our family experience. How can we make it special and significant?

This year we bought our first ever ‘real’ Christmas Tree. It looks amazing. Whilst my son is too young to appreciate it we invited the neighbour’s kids to come over and help us decorate. We had Dean Martin crooning in the background – it was great.

This year is also the first Christmas in 10 years that I am taking off. Being in sales I normally need to work right through – but not this year.

Let me take this opportunity to wish you all the very best these holidays and a hearty ‘Season’s Greetings ‘.

Thank you for sticking with my blog during 2009 and I wish each of you a wonderful start to 2010.

Regards,

Richard
