So this is Christmas... and what have you done?

Wow, it's here. The day was spent cooking, and cutting snowflakes and playing spirograph and planning the big guy's visit. We ate soup (corn chowder) and bread and scratched off lottery tickets (and made back $27 and two tickets). It is now 11:17pm and I have had to put Glee back to bed before she reached the bottom of the stairs. "has he been here yet?" but no, I don't want to ruin the surprise. Sure, he's been here, got here just before my shower and just after I finished the coffee cake for breakfast!

This is an amazingly magical time. They both believe so much with their hearts that it all must be true. We did a fairy and mermaid tea last weekend... they left her a magic freshwater pearl necklace (thanks Cost Plus!). Oh, and real live flowers covered in magic dust. They will grace our table tomorrow.

Happy Christmas to you all... and solstice and hannukah and kwanzaa and whatever it is you want to celebrate. Love your family and celebrate!
