Christmas morning: Amy tests a cash register Grandpa gave her knowing she always wanted one.The second good thing about my dad was he loved Christmas. After his retirement my dad's participation in Christmas increased dramatically. He would do Christmas shopping all year long at the actions he attended on Saturdays. He would start wrapping in early November and by Christmas there were presents mounded up and over flowing under the Christmas tree as he anticipated Christmas morning when all his grandchildren would come to unwrap gifts.

Harried day-nurse visited in AM. I made a quick trip to town-home health aide came-family meeting with Pastor Tom to make initial funeral plans-then Wendy came over to talk. All the while trying to keep dad's leaking feet dry and wash towels as they got wet. So glad Tom can do the funeral as we are all comfortable with him. Wayne spent the night-I slept soundly.

That cash register is in my closet. Maybe I should get it out and wrap it up for myself to open on Christmas...but I might cry too much.
