Henry remembered very well the few Christmases he celebrated with his family , before his mother left him and his uncle died, at Christmas they were almost a normal family
They used to go to his uncles' house to celebrate Christmas.
His father and his uncle went out to drink and practice their shots in the yard
While his mother and his aunt stayed in the kitchen preparing Christmas food, it was one of the few times Henry remembered hearing his mother laugh.
Henry enjoyed seeing the Christmas tree lights, decorating the gingerbread cookies that his aunt gave him and opening their presents while the adults talked about things that he did not understand but it made him happy to see his parents without fighting.
Christmas was the best and it had always made him happy.
He especially remembered Christmas that he met his little cousin.
The first thing he noticed as soon as he entered his uncles' house is that his aunt no longer had her big belly ,Henry, who was 2 years old, couldn't help asking why
"Why aren't you fat anymore, aunt?"
Everyone in the room laughed and Henry, confused, thought about asking again but something in the room caught his attention.
While his father and uncle went out to drink and his mother and aunt chatted happily, Henry approached the couch.
Lying on the couch was what Henry could only guess was a doll
"Auntie did they bring you a doll for Christmas?"
His mother and his aunt laughed again, his aunt took the "doll" in her arms and brought him closer to Henry so that he could see the "doll" better. Tangled between blankets the doll had a pink face and curly golden hair, Henry thought it was cute.
"It's not a doll, it's your little cousin"
" It's mine ?" Henry who was not allowed to have dolls, smiled and tried to grab it with enthusiasm but his aunt didn't let go "I want to carry it, you said it was mine" he said pouting
"Sit on the couch so you can carry your little cousin then"
Henry sat quickly on the couch and with great care his aunt laid Connor on his lap, Henry was hardly a little bigger than baby Connor but he cradled his cousin carefully in her arms.
Henry gently touched Connor's face
"He is so small"
"One day he will be big like you, and he will be able to play with you"
Henry smiled, he liked having a little cousin.
The following Christmas was even better because Connor was no longer a baby and he could play with him, he could decorate gingerbread cookies with him, open the Christmas presents together while they talked even though the adults didn't understand what they were talking about.
Christmas with his little cousin were the best memories Henry had.
