Christmas Traditions in Reunion

I have been in reunion with my bson for 2 years. I have 2 other children so like in any other family, we take turns. We can't all be in the same place at the same time so this year my 2 daughters will be at my house for Christmas and we will go to my bson's house right after Christmas. Last year we spent Thanksgiving at my b-son's. This year we went to my daughter's house. It's complicated but we work it out. So far, so good. The family keeps getting bigger! (and better) Happy Holidays!

Thanks for the reply. This is also my second Christmas in reunion. Last year he and his family came here on Christmas Eve. This year he and his wife have invited both "a & b" families to their house for Christmas Day. Should be interesting!

How wonderful for both of you!! I am so happy to hear that you are at the point in your reunion where you can spend Holiday's together...it gives us all hope!! And thank you, Kathy, for starting this topic...as a Birth Mother who's fresh into the reunion process I'm interested to learn about what other's do/have done or have expierenced...As BD and I have only been in email contact for a little over 6 weeks and I haven't even figured out how to get her to talk on the phone, well - I guess you could say I can use all the help I can get LOL! So to contribute to the conversation: I will tell you that after getting her permission to send her a "box" this year, I picked out a pair of earings that featured birth month crystals. I used both our birth months...I know it corney but I just wanted to give her something that really ment something, not just something I grabbed off a shelf somewhere KWIM? Now I just sit and wait for the UPS man! Hope they come soon, I'm running out of time! Congrat's again on your wonderful reunions! Wishing you both peace, love and joy, today and everyday! :love: C.

That sounds like a marvelous gift. Somehow it's easier for me to come up with personal gifts for my daughter than either of my sons. One of the first things I gave D was actually to his daughter. I gave her the ring that I had been given as an infant. 6 weeks is a very new relationship (last Christmas I had had about 12! LOL) I really think the reunions that start slowly ultimately succeed better. (But what do I know, it's only been 14months!) God be with you and give you peace!
