While it was pretty strange and surprisingly emotional to have my first Christmas without mom, dad, and Maxie, in the end it was a lovely holiday. D's family was very generous in making me feel included in their traditions, and also in making room for some of mine! D especially was amazing (as usual), going above and beyond to make me smile.
