Santa Has It Easy This Christmas – The Full Moon

Tweet

Just think of the Christmases that Santa had to fight bad weather. Sleet and snow, high winds and cloudy and dark cold nights slowed his progress many times. Somehow he always got to our house. How does he do that? Santa should have an easy time finding all the children in world world the night before the full moon. Christmas Day's night is the last Full Moon of 2015. A few years ago my youngest son spent Christmas with his girlfriend and her family in Jamaica. He was invited by the girls father and the grandparents. Her parents are divorced and that year she was going to be with her dad for Christmas. Our son was an adult in College, we told him we would miss him but he should take advantage of being able to travel and have a good time. We did miss him. But we knew he was in good hands and was probably enjoying the ocean and the warmth much more than he would enjoy the snow in Canada. The phone ran one night and I picked it up, It was my son saying he was having a great time but wanted us to know he was well and happy. His girlfriend's father wanted to talk to me. I chatted with my son's host for a few minutes when he asked me if I could see the moon in Canada that night. I was standing by the window and said I could see and it was full. He went on to say how beautiful it was and how amazing it is that he and I can carry on a conversation thousands of miles away from each other while looking at the same moon. The world gets smaller and smaller the more technology improves. No matter where you are on the 25th, when you look out the window and see the full moon, just know all of us here on myLot will see the same moon. It doesn't matter if we celebrate Christmas or not, it doesn't matter where we are or who we are, the moon we all see and enjoy is the same moon. Merry Christmas and Have a Happy New Year.
