We've had lots and lots and lots going on here lately..........too much, and today I can see on my calendar, that there are only 6 full days until Christmas! The hugely anticipated holiday of the year in our books. So much time has gone into shopping, preparing, wrapping, preparing, photo taking, editing, packaging, mailing...........and in the end I know that everything will end just as its supposed to. I know that the next few weeks will be fun and exciting and I am going to live each moment and event to the fullest. My home is feeling so comfy and warm with our tree decorated and lit, and the kids waking up this morning with the sound of excitement now that Christmas Holidays has officially begun for them. We are going to town this morning to get last minute items for Jaden's birthday party this afternoon, and for the next 2 weeks my calendar is wide open!!! Bring on the company, and visiting, playing board games, making hot chocolate, decorating cookies and just being together snuggling on the couch, talking about Santa and baby Jesus, reading our Christmas books, and watching ELF which has become a tradition at this time of year :) Nothing to do but enjoy the down time, enjoy my kids, enjoy the season. The magic has started... when my 2 older ones crawled into bed with me early this morning whispering then giggling, soooo excited to be home and counting down the days for Christmas. This morning I feel SO blessed. I have a husband who loves me for me, and whom I love bigger then the sky who gave me 3 beautiful, sweet and healthy kids. We live across the street from my parents who are there for us every single day, who love my kids to pieces. We are near the majority of our extended family, and we look forward to spending time with them during the holidays.
SOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.... bring on the next two weeks, bring on the music singing, dancing, jammie jamming, late nights and late mornings, candy cane licking, mistletoe kissing, full belly laughing, and all that the season brings! Enjoy the Holidays!!! I know we will :) :) :)
