Merry Christmas, Devlyn, and thank you for the warm wishes. I truly appreciate you taking the time to share them with everyone here, and especially for starting a thread in a place that lets everyone respond!
And thank you as well, Davina. It's always good to see you, and your kindness and steady presence are appreciated more than you know.
For everyone else—happy or sad, with bio family or chosen family, or on your own—please remember that you are always welcome here. We will love you exactly as you come, and support you as much or as little as you need. We are family, even if you don't yet think of us that way.
Whether you are celebrating Christmas 🎄, Hanukkah 🕎, Yule 🌲, the Winter Solstice 🌌, Kwanzaa 🤎 , or observing the season in your own way, you are seen and valued here. Warm wishes to all, and gentle thoughts for all those for whom these holidays are like a bad relationship—somewhat complicated
With Love and support!
— Susan 💜
