My Mom always loved that Elvis Christmas album….In fact, I’m pretty sure it was the first hunk of vinyl her kids ever bought for her, collectively….
And, hey!, Jody Paterson has a fine post up about ‘The Leaving’ to come rather than ‘The Arrival’ that just happened….And it would appear that, perhaps, the doing of the things with the kids may the most important thing of all things in both…Sometimes, I really do wonder if all of the life worth living is a Weakerthans song.
