Early Christmas Gift
What was your all-time favourite Christmas gift?
A special childhood gift (sled, electric train?), an object that someone spent a lot of time and effort on crafting (tree decoration, item of jewelry?).
Odds are it arrived a few days early.
And, you had to wait (and wait) until Christmas morning to find out, when the family opened their gifts around the Christmas tree!
This year, we didn't have to wait ..... quite so long.
Our 'special gift' arrived back home a couple of weeks early!
Early in the morning of December 10, our grand-nice Amélie (a.k.a.: 'La niña'), along with Mama Yannis and Papa Chris, arrived 'back home' (direct quote!) from Toronto.
Papa had had to move his young family to T-O last June, to continue working in the movie business.
The N.S. Governmnent's Spring budget had pulled the plug on the Movie Tax rebate law, effectively destroying a lucrative local industry.
