What would it be like..

.
............. if there were no children in your home on Christmas? After all, Christmas is all about the birth of The Child.

I was blessed to have two children of my own, and my wife brought two more into our life. And all those children, except one, were blessed with children of their own. And, four of our grand children will be in our home this Christmas.

And, each of my brothers and sisters had children of their own.

And, each of my brothers had at least one child that had a child of his own. So, there will be grand children in my brother's home for Christmas.

And , two of my three sisters had at least one child that had a child of their own. So, there will be grand children in those sisters' homes for Christmas.

But, my other sister has no grand children, because neither of her children had children. So, that means that sister will have no grand children in her home for Christmas. And she is plenty old enough to have grand children. And, her children are plenty old enough to have children. And, unless my other sister invites some one into her home with children for Christmas, there will be no children in that sister's home at Christmas.

What would that be like?

  1. Quieter than your house, and that's not a bad thing!

  2. I think that sister's kids went to school and got jobs so they could be self-reliant. Now, they don't need husbands! Thus, no kids. Besides, her grand-doggies are better behaved AND cuter than any of your grandkids...
