Holidays

Daily writing prompt
What is your favorite holiday? Why is it your favorite?

St. Patrick’s Day has always been my favorite holiday and I’ve never really known why. I always loved dressing in all green, even though I don’t like the color green. I always thought it was so much fun. I guess, any holiday you can dress up for was fun to me.

Now that I’m older and have lost my mother, a lot of the holidays are hard for me. Especially the ones she loved the most, Thanksgiving and Christmas. The two holidays that really brought family together. She really loved those holidays when we’d all get together, eat, and talk, and just hangout. Those are the hardest for me now because she isn’t there for them anymore.
