Samantha elected to stay in Vallarta for Christmas. Our home is already decorated with tiny lights and gold. Our Christmas Eve, in parts, will cultivate the Polish tradition: we will share wishes with holy wafer that made a successful travel from my mothers hands, through Boulder and in Samanthas luggage. The table will be dressed with white table cloth, set with an extra setting for an unexpected traveler, decorated with my paternal grandmothers wedding day candle holders , my maternal grandmothers drop spindle and Samantha's installation. I will be wearing my grandmothers silk dress she made over 60 years ago. Lots of candles will scent the room, and monks choir musica will pleasure our tribal ear.
Live is beautiful.
have a wonderful season of snow, lights, and the lifted spirit.
I will take photos and share them with you during post holiday deflation, so should you. This way we can share holidays with each other.

przedswiateczne przygotowania

Kochani
Samantha zazyczyla sobie spedzenie swiat w naszym mieszkaniu w miescie. Nasz dom jest juz udekorowany swiatelkami i zlotem. Nasza Wigilia bedzie kultywowac po czesci polska tradycje: dzielenie sie oplatkiem, ktory dotarl nienaruszony z rak mojej Mamy do Boulder i w walizce Samanthy do Vallarta. Stol pokryty bialym damaszkowym obrusem nakryty bedzie dodatkowym miejscem dla niespodziewanego wedrowca, na nim slubne swieczniki babci Wiktorii i wrzeciono babci Jadwigi w towarzystwie Samanthy decoracji polaczy 4 generacje. Ubiore babcina jedwabna sukienke zrobiona przez Nia przed ponad 60 lat temu. Zapalimy duzo swiec, zeby wypelnic dom zapachem wosku i swierku, a w tle zakonny chor zaspiewa koledy.
Zycie jest piekne.
Niech Wasze swieta wypelni swiatlo i poczucie uniesionego ducha.
Wysle zdjecie naszej Wigili w czasie poswiatecznej deflacji i Wy tez powinniscie to zrobic, zeby chociaz w ten sposob przyblizyc siebie.
