My Christmas morning in Wuxi.

There is no tree and presents at the Casa Kaulins here in the Huishan Economic Development Zone of Wuxi, China. There is Christmas music. (The Reader's Digest Christmas music compilation my parents sent me a few years comes in very handy this time of the year). Tony was up. Holding him in my arms, swaying as we listened to Christmas music (Ella and Bing singing about the birth of a child) put him to sleep. That simple thing makes Christmas all worth it. The elaborate planning will happen one day but having my son fall asleep in my arms is all I need for this Christmas to be worthwhile
