Give the gift of happiness What could be a better way to add sparkle to the eyes and heart of a senior than to share a happy holiday moment with them? The simple gesture of stopping by to say “hello” is a gift of happiness that will stand out among the token gifts and Christmas cards this year. Just think of those long-ago visits to your own grandparents’ at Christmas time: the deli- cious smell of sweets baking, the old family Christmas decorations hanging from the tree, and songs and stories from times gone by. Just close your eyes and remember the cozy atmosphere and yummy treats created with such loving care by your grandmother. In return for those great memories, you could take some time from your busy holiday schedule to bring your own children to see their grandparents, or maybe even their great- grandparents, for a pre-Christmas visit. An elderly neighbour might also love to have a chance to see you for a cup of tea and sweets. If you’re going to be visiting grandparents for the holidays, be sure to arrive the day be- fore so you can help Gran prepare the meal for the next day while Grandpa entertains the kids. Bring whatever you can to help out: some of your own baked goods or some cider or wine. Seeing your children’s smiles as they learn the secrets of Grandma’s cranberry

Do what you can to create Christmas tradi- tions and family memories, for they are what bind together the old and young generatio ns

sauce will warm your heart. The next day, dress to the nines for dinner and be sure to help out in the kitchen at clean-up time. The presence of family is a wonderful gift to offer your children as well. After all, true happiness is being able to spend some time with the ones we love, time that will create unforgettable memories. That is why it is so important to create the occasions where we can renew the ties that bind us to our families and to the older generation.
