All I want for Christmas is...

My Dad.

He would read us The Polar Express on Christmas Eve.
No matter how tough things were he always made sure that it was special for us. He always held it together during tough financial times and was the best Santa. 
I wish I could be that great of a parent.
I can only hope my kids feel the same way about me as I do about my father.

Maybe someday I will be able to have a perfect holiday season. A perfect holiday season when I can feel the magic during this time of year like I once did as a child.
Not as I do now crippled with depression, sadness and anxiety.

All I want for Christmas is you (dad)
