My Christmas wasn't very religiously-focused. I felt a little shocked and taken aback when I received religiously-themed gifts (like a candle with a Bible verse on it, and a homemade Advent book with a story, Scripture, and carol to read every day in December). I tried to use up all the religious-y Christmas cards I had 'cause although they don't really suit me this year, they might suit me even less next year.
I had a good Christmas though. I wasn't looking forward to spending it with my Dad's side of the family, but everyone kept saying "I'm so glad you came" and I had to say it back so many times that eventually it became true. And Oma brought apple sauce for Christmas dinner, just because that's Christmas for me. I was really touched. Yeah, it was good. Way better than I expected.
