When my kids were growing up we always set an extra place at the table on Christmas Eve (a Ukrainian/Russian tradition), both to be ready to offer dinner to anyone needing it, and to honor/remember relatives no longer with us. We used to do the 12-dish traditional Ukrainian Christmas Eve meal but the kids aren't into it so much anymore. This year it won't be practical anyway. I used to love doing it, though.
