Yes, I realize Christmas is not over. I wish the season would last a little longer though. Amyra (my niece, pictured) is already campaigning to go see more lights before they take them down around town after Christmas. I guess seven different places weren’t enough.
Others might miss the time off they’ll get for the holiday, or maybe spending time with family and friends. I will miss the (for the most part) better moods people I come into contact with, have this time of year.
What about you?

Strangely, nothing. The christmas Movies and t.v. we love is avaible on streaming any time I want. It's been George and me against the world for years. And, this is our first cat-free Christmas. It feels almost like nothing will change when Christmas ends.

I am thankful that my Christmas went well, but I still miss my Mom.

Not much really lol. Maybe having the tree/decorations up.
I do miss how things were in the past, our big family get together, opening gifts with my grandparents, etc...

@MommyOfEli2013 Aw, Courtney. I really do understand that. The idea of making new traditions is a good one though. I hope you do that.

@AmbiePam Just feels like nothing will ever be the same. Just got to make new traditions I suppose.

In the Philippines it will end when everyone is preparing for valentines day.
I will miss the warmth and joy of the holiday, anyway Jesus is always with us so i think the celebration of His birth are being celebrated everyday.
Nothing compares to His goodness and love. the promise of Christmas is eternal life with Him in heaven a more joyful and peaceful life with Him... I think that is what made Christmas so special and warm every year.

I like the fact that she loves to go and see the lights.
To be honest what I miss about Christmas are the old values.
Singing Christmas carols, going together as a family for car rides to look at the lights, trying to find where my mother hid the Christmas baking, and sneaking a taste........
Today people say Season's Greetings, and Merry Christmas and they almost sound hollow as the love and the genuine thought behind it do not seem to be there.
I miss the big family gatherings that we used to host and the little ones too.
This year I believe that I will miss how excited that the girls are, and how innocent. When they ask Santa? Presents?
They do not take gifts for granted, and I love that. I hope that does not change but I have a feeling that it will.

I'm not looking forward to the mood swing after Christmas. People smile now and wish each other a Merry Christmas. It won't be like that after New Year's. Yes, I will miss the joy the season brings. It's always sad when the decorations come down. I'm hoping for lots of snow so the city can't take the decorations down too soon. One year it was almost spring before the snow melted enough so they could take down the decorations.
