One of Mom's annual holiday gifts to each of her children is a small container of holiday candy. When we were little, many moons ago, the candy would be in a stocking with at least one orange in the stocking. I think the orange with a small piece of candy inserted is a southern tradition.
Mom is in her 80's now, but she always remembers us in this special way.
There's something dear and comforting about our small container of holiday candy from Mom.
If you can, hug your Mom soon. Hug your Dad too, if you can. Or, hug your sweet memories of them.
Happy New Year 2020, everyone!
