Christmas 1935.

I was invited by my Grandmother Trijntje Vonk to spend Christmas with her. She lived in a very small town called Een. Christmas day Eve we where going to the church serves . We had to take a very small walk there the church was almost across the street.A feeling you get to walk peace full with your Grandmother in the dark is so cozy, I can still feel it.The church was small but full of people. They all knew one a other.Again a great feeling and I was proud of my Grandmother, She talked to every one, and every one liked her. We sat close to a beautiful Christmas tree full of lights. We sang and prayed and then we got warm cocoa and koek.And every one got a small gift. Mitten or a scarf, oranges and some candy and we all where very happy.Why I am writing this is to let every one know how a Grandmother can give you that feeling of peace. It has giving me that feeling over and over again, for almost 80 years.
