Extra Word Sudoku (Celebration!) Puzzles for 12/3/2025

Gratitude opens the heart

Welcome to December, the month we should make some small attempt to reflect, for good or bad; to remember the high points as well as the low; to look forward with hope, instead of just dread, to what the next year brings.

Every extra "celebration" puzzle this month is a reminder that, despite the b*s* that occurred in 2025, this year wasn't all chaos. Some of it certainly was dread, despair, and sheer endurance. But some of it was personal development, too.
