Default special christmas thoughts

i found a thread on another forum a while ago & i thought it would be nice to do one here.
As many of you know my dear granddad passed away 3 weeks ago, as you can imagine this time of year is quite difficult, so i would like to start a thread for people you are missing this year. i don't intend on depressing you all at christmas but as was said to me it will hopefully let you say what you’re thinking and then get on with having a great Christmas.

So, heres my special people
Granddad
Nan H
Nan B
Sasha
Annie (ole bat)
Toddy
Jimbo
grandma
Granddad
Don

always in our thoughts, forever in our hearts xx

What a lovely idea. A difficult time of year for many of us I am sure, but lets remember the good times!

Heres to my grandad, the best toboggan puller in the world! Always in my heart!

I agree, a lovely thought.

In memory of the baby we lost, you will always be our little angel.

My thoughts are with those of you who have recently lost someone special.

I wonder how many of us are crying as we read/write this?

My Dad. I hope you can see where I am now - you'd love it.
My mum - she'll never get on a plane so I hope she keeps well till we can get back to see her.
My son
My brother and his new baby
My sisters, niece and nephews

We've just had friends here and they left yesterday - I'm a bit homesick at the moment. :-(

My dear Mum...dreadfully missed -eternally loved...I just know she's watching over us (her family) still (daren't be too naughty in case she's 'watching'!!)

My Grandma...wonderful grandma...always had sweeties in her handbag (and they weren't covered in fluff either - bonus!!)

My Granddad...he was an Ice Cream man...what could be better??

Lovely idea for a thread at this time of year...karma to you and Christmassy thoughts to you all...

What a lovely idea.

No-one to miss, but lots to remember on both sides of the family.

To Nana who's holding my little boys hand, we love and miss you both so much even after all this time, wherever in the world we are, you're there at our side xx

What a lovely idea, Poppets.

I still really miss my Mum's mum, my Granny. She died less than a year before I fell pregnant with my sweet daughter. We nearly named her after my Granny but felt it was too soon. My Mum thanked me for not using her mum's name, as she felt it was too close as well. She was a loving soul...
