I have always loved the bittersweet vine. Usually I think of it around Thanksgiving. It was always fun to decorate our Thanksgiving table with the vine. I love the colors and the shapes.
This has been a challenging year in many ways. In addition to COVID restrictions and uncertainties, some family medical issues have kept us busy running to doctor's appointments. For the past several months we were not sure that we would be celebrating this holiday season at all - but how grateful and blessed we are feeling to have this time together.
So, when I was thinking of a card for this Christmas all I could think about was 'bittersweet.' It doesn't look as holiday-like, but it conveys a feeling that a lot of people share around this time of year. It's a time of reflection, of Christmases past, and of times of joy and sadness. It is truly a bitter-sweet time.
Merry Christmas everyone. Take the time to treasure the moments we all have and to make memories for the times to come.
