I just found this picture and I got convinced that it will be a fantastic Christmas this year too. I was worried that because it will be so different, I will not feel like it's Christmas.
But, on Thursday my parents will be here, and that is really all it takes to make it Christmas time. Back in Norway it was all about the presents, the decorations and the food.
When you need to create Christmas without your normal traditions, you really understand what it's all about. It is not about how many different types of cookies you can bake, or how many decorations with angels and Santa Clauses you can fit into the living room. It is all about who you share it with. And I'm going to share this Christmas with the people that have traveled all the way to the other side of the Earth, just because they love me. And that is the best present a person can get.
Mum and dad, I love you
