So it was snowing again this morning and Gabriel pipes up, it’s Christmastime!!!!
And it suddenly hit me. He’s RIGHT!!
I mean… wait a second… or hold on a tick as Gabriel likes to say, in the British quippy way…
Christmas is already here?! Didn’t our amazing Thanksgiving just happen?!
And shouldn’t the days slow down just a wee bit so I can drink in this newborn elixir to my drunken fill?! How can the holidays possibly be here and Advent already nearly past?!
So I hung our stockings. All FOUR of them. *happy tears*
And I have a couple Christmas towels and one Christmas pillow out. And a couple candles.
But tomorrow? I think tomorrow we may step into the backyard and cut down a tree. Literally twenty feet from our back door. And then I will march down to the basement and find some lights and ornaments. Because whether I had realized it or not, my three year old did and won’t stop reminding me: IT’S CHRISTMASTIME!!! 🙂
Hurray hurray! 🙂 Children’s excitement is contagious. And yes, the elixir of new life must be incredible. 😀 big grin. I hope your Christmas is lovely!
Excitement and blessings overflowing!! 🙂
I keep thinking of you as a family of four and it makes my heart burst with joy!
I had to laugh at “hold on a tick” and Gabriel saying that. LOL
