Our Christmas celebration together was a joy! That was the morning party at my house. In the afternoon we celebrated Nathan’s seventh birthday at Alice and Mike’s with the larger family. The Hungarian Girl Scouts came to sing Christmas Carols for us toward the end. It’s always magical.
And this morning I get whisked away for my new knees. Andy says I will be “Bionic Nana”. We had a lovely time together…..Three days from now Em and Ingmar, Sofia and Clara leave for many months in Hungary. We’ll miss them, but I’m hoping that by about May my knees are good enough to go visit them.

Henrietta’s House arrived! I am SO going to set aside everything else to read it (except for taking Christopher to campus for his two finals today).
I’m praying for you, my friend. Thank you for thinking of me in the midst of family and preparing for surgery. May you be blessed as you have blessed me.
Bionic Nana, indeed. You’ll be the most motivated person in rehab with the trip dancing in your head. Thinking of you.
Are you getting new knees just so you can wear a mini-skirt this Summer?
Just kidding. I’ll be thinking of you today.
Take care.

I remembered you get your new knees today. Praying for a skillful surgeon and that your pain will be bearable. Please let us know how you are doing….of course after you have healed a good while. Susan
Your family get-together looks wonderful and I am glad you were able to do this before your operation!
Thinking of you today, and I am sure all goes well and you will be dancing and skipping about next spring
Looking forward to the report on your bionic knees! I hope the recovery is going well.
My husband is eventually going to have to get bionic knees, so I am hoping all is going well with you. Your early Christmas sounds peaceful and joyous, filled with lovely family.
