I love this holiday... but it is also bittersweet. My loving Grandmommy has been dead now for 9 years. I let the anniversary get by me this year without going to see her.. which I so wanted to do. I know it would just be her headstone and not her but I always feel closer to her there. She never got to meet my children but I can see what she would be doing if she came to my house right now. She would be standing there with one hand on her side and the other pointing at me and my messy house.
I am pryaing that we are all well for Christmas. Don is in bed now with a stomach virus that mom had yesterday. It only lasts one day, but I pray that the rest of us don't come down with it now.
The kids are all excited about it being Christmas. Will has been begging to open his gifts, so we let the kids each open one gift today. They opened movies which Kaitlyn has already watched hers. I look forward to watching them tomorrow open their gifts and then on Christmas Day to see what Santa brought them.
Merry Christmas Everyone! I hope everyone has a blessed holiday and get everything you were wishing for.
So it begins...
