Extra Word Sudoku (Celebration!) Puzzles for 12/17/2025

Connection heals quietly

Every extra "celebration" puzzle this month is a reminder that this year wasn't all chaos. Some of it was endurance, despair, even dread. But some of it was development, too.

I got something out of writing them, and hiding them in these puzzles; if you get even a little enjoyment in discovering them, then I'm OK.
