One of the gift that I received last Christmas was the pillow am holding in the picture, with lettering Nobody Nobody But You from the song Nobody But You. It was given to me by my niece who took time to buy it when she felt depressed in school, so I treasure the gift and appreciate what she has given to me.

My nephew looking at the fireworks. He is enjoying the sight even if
he is a little bit afraid of it. This little boy is three years old and he speaks in English. Just like his big brother he likes chocolates and
play station. One time when his mom who is my sister scolded him,
he answered his mom "Why are you always angry at me, Mom?" and then my sister just laughed at his son.

On the eve of Christmas the church was filled with people. We tried to attend the mass scheduled at 9:00 but we arrived a little bit late squeezing our way to the altar. We have been standing for more than an hour and the kids who were with us are playing while hearing the mass. Finally the mass was finished, when we went outside the little boy slipped from the hands of her mom, until we were already outside the church we cannot find the boy. How fast he disappeared from our sight. My sisters and I went back to the church to find the boy but we can't find him and besides the church was filled with human beings, it's not easy to find the little boy. The mother of the boy was already worried and almost in tears. While I was waiting at the car I got a call from my other sister that the boy has already gone home. The call erased our fears and worries. We went home and the boy was already there waiting for us, there is fear in his eyes but trying to conceal it with his strength. The mother scolded the boy and he asked for forgiveness for what he has done.
The scene is familiar, it's like when Jesus got lost in the temple but He was listening to the scribes, while the other boy went home on his own. The boy has learned his lesson he will never ever leave his mother and he will not be impatient but will wait for his companion.
