One hundred and eighty one days. Christmas Day arrives beneath mostly cloudy skies, the kind of soft, muted light that makes the world feel suspended for a moment. It’s the kind of morning where memories rise easily — quiet, steady, and close.
Somewhere between all the places we went on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, there was always a moment when everything slowed. Our parents, Jenny, and I would gather around the tree with only its lights flickering — no lamps, no noise, just the glow of December and the sound of our family breathing in unison.
Mama would start the carols, her voice warm and steady, filling the room in a way that made the world feel safe. And every year, without fail, she sang O Holy Night. We were mesmerized — by her voice, by the emotion she carried in every note, by the way the room seemed to hold its breath until the last line faded.
Jenny loved those moments. She’d sit close, knees tucked under her, eyes reflecting the lights on the tree, as if the whole world had narrowed to the sound of Mama singing and the warmth of being together. It was one of the few times the season felt still enough to let us feel everything at once — the joy, the tenderness, the belonging.
And this year, those lyrics echo differently. A thrill of hope. A weary world rejoicing. The promise of a new day breaking. They feel like a plea and a prayer all at once — for answers, for light, for the moment when the long night finally gives way to something clearer, something true.
The sky may be clouded today, but even muted light carries its own kind of promise. We hold onto that — the belief that a new and glorious morning can still rise for Jenny, for her children, for all of us who love her.

Day 181 | O Holy Night
One hundred and eighty one days.
Christmas Day arrives beneath mostly cloudy skies,
the kind of soft, muted light
that makes the world feel suspended for a moment.
It’s the kind of morning where memories rise easily —
quiet, steady, and close.
Somewhere between all the places we went
on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day,
there was always a moment when everything slowed.
Our parents, Jenny, and I would gather around the tree
with only its lights flickering —
no lamps, no noise, just the glow of December
and the sound of our family breathing in unison.
Mama would start the carols,
her voice warm and steady,
filling the room in a way that made the world feel safe.
And every year, without fail,
she sang O Holy Night.
We were mesmerized —
by her voice,
by the emotion she carried in every note,
by the way the room seemed to hold its breath
until the last line faded.
Jenny loved those moments.
She’d sit close, knees tucked under her,
eyes reflecting the lights on the tree,
as if the whole world had narrowed
to the sound of Mama singing
and the warmth of being together.
It was one of the few times
the season felt still enough
to let us feel everything at once —
the joy, the tenderness, the belonging.
And this year, those lyrics echo differently.
A thrill of hope.
A weary world rejoicing.
The promise of a new day breaking.
They feel like a plea and a prayer all at once —
for answers,
for light,
for the moment when the long night finally gives way
to something clearer, something true.
The sky may be clouded today,
but even muted light carries its own kind of promise.
We hold onto that —
the belief that a new and glorious morning
can still rise for Jenny,
for her children,
for all of us who love her.
