Giving, accepting thanks

I remember waking up at five o’clock on Christmas morning as a 4-year-old excited to see if I made Santa’s good list. Still wearing slipper-socks and pajamas unwrapped the night before; I quietly peek from my bedroom door to see my sister sitting under our Christmas tree.

For this memory, I am thankful.
