Marie Osmond Credits Her Grandkids for Making Christmas 2019 ‘Incredible’: I’m ‘So Blessed’

How sweet! This Christmas was so special for Marie Osmond and her family because she got to spend it with her adorable grandkids. Taking to Instagram on Sunday, December 29, The Talk cohost explained why she loves hanging out with her loved ones during the holidays.

“This #Christmas has been so incredible! The photo with the babies are our three little piglets ?, as we affectionately call them,” Marie, 60, wrote alongside a snap of three of her grandchildren at home. “My husband, Steve Craig, and I are so blessed to have most of our children and our adorable grand babies [sic] running around and around and around the house! But more than anything, this Christmas has brought back so many memories of times I watched my mother with her grandchildren during Christmases past.”

Marie’s heartfelt caption didn’t end there. She shared another photo of a Christmas cactus that her late mom, Olive Osmond, used to love. In 2004, Olive passed away from a stroke, but the “Paper Roses” singer still remembers how happy that plant used to make her mother.

“A ‘Christmas cactus’ by virtue of it’s name, is supposed to only bloom around Christmastime, but I swear this one is magical,” she explained. “It’s like my mom still expresses her happiness through it, because it blooms on special occasions throughout the year. It even bloomed overnight the day I decided to divorce my exhusband [sic]. No kidding!!”

“I think it was Mom’s way of saying, ‘good decision, daughter!’ ? But mostly, this little cactus has felt like a beautiful welcome each time I come here from my sweet mother,” she added. “Today her Christmas cactus is a sweet metaphor to me of the continual love and consistency we need in our lives.”

Marie continues to pass on this “continual love” to her grandkids. In fact, she previously told Closer Weekly that hanging out with them isn’t hard because she love to do “anything” with her family.

“They’ll want to go miniature golfing or my little granddaughter wants to just color or they’ll make fake food in their kitchen and we’ll eat it,” she laughed. “Whatever it is.”

We’re glad to hear everyone had a great Christmas!
