What a blessed Christmas we had this year... and once again, just like that, it is over! We rush to get ready and wrap until wee hours of the night, and then in just a few hours, all our preparations are opened and some forgotten. This year my boys liked trying to figure out what was in their presents, but after a couple shirts and a pair of pajamas, they didn't want to open any more "soft presents"... mental note, next year wrap the clothes in boxes! Maggie on the other hand took her pajamas and held them up to her and showed everyone how pretty she is with her new clothes... the differences between boys and girls... isn't God amazing how he plans that??!!
The boys favorite things from Santa were their 4 foot long walleye and blue gill pillows! They were so excited that Santa remembered those. What fun we had this year taking our time and taking each toy out and playing with it for a little while before opening another... I lost Mother of the year again because I forgot batteries for all of the geo tracks trains and planes that Santa brought. OOPS! Oh well... it was a wonderful day... we played rock band and geo and deer hunting in our pajamas all day. What fun!
Today was another whirl wind, celebrating with Becky, JD and the boys. The boys had fun pushing Maggie's new stroller around. Another great day for the books.
I know life isn't perfect and we've had quite a few fights over whose turn it is to play this or that. We definitely have strong willed children, but I wouldn't change a thing. We are blessed in so many ways. Thank you Lord for our family and for all you have done for us. Thank you for bringing our family together today Lord. We love you. Amen.
