'Tis the night before...

Just under 8 hours til Christmas morning. There will be a house full tomorrow; 3 of my "kids", 4 grandkids, and 1 great grand kid who will arrive around may. The clan is growing Grandfather. And none lost in war since Grandfather came to this country. Not bad considering. After me no one will remember where we came from. The kids laugh at me and my story's of how my Grandfather snuck into this country. Of how my Grandmother came over with my Mom and Dad. Grandfather came at a time when they used to put signs in the windows of businesses that said "NINA". No Irish Need Apply. Having a brough was enough to qualify as Irish. They didn't care really, they could of just said no Celts. But after me that will all be forgotten. No more Scots, just Americans. No longing for a home never seen or family never met. Ahh well, maybe the great grandson. LOL. Must be the Christmas Spirit. Or more probably, I've been off the road to long. I'll fix that next week. Well I've a few things to sneak into the house so, Merry Christmas to any who read this.
