Growing up we both had traditions, some we will continue with our family and some will be new.
Traditions can look much different when you’re a family of four, with one in heaven.
Traditions make memories as a family.
Our family looks different than most, and so may our traditions.
Our stockings were hung, and we knew Carter needed one, too.
I’ve struggled with missing the physical elements especially, and things like having a stocking for and having him in family photos helps.
We are adopting family traditions and starting our own traditions this year.
We are starting with our stockings. Each year we will put a few things in them. On Christmas Day, we visit Carter where he rests to give him his gifts.
Traditions may look different for each family, but there’s one thing in common - love.
