For many, the holiday season evokes nostalgia like no other. As soon as the Christmas tree goes up in the living room, the memories start rolling in. Opening presents with siblings, singing Christmas carols with grandma, and gathering around the table for the holiday feast are just a few of many thoughts that come to life during the winter months.

The holiday season is a great reminder of all of these amazing memories, but it can also be a difficult time for those working through unexpected circumstances and losses in the family. Finding simple ways to reminisce on those special memories and bring light to the holidays can be a reminder of what Christmas is all about: being with the ones who mean the most to you and reflecting on the time spent with those who are no longer with you.
