Twas the night before Christmas...
Even as big as our kids are...Santa still comes to visit us! I love the joys of the holiday season. We didn't get our tree up until so late this year, but we love it every year. We had a fun time decorating the tree, and our giant boy, placed all the ornaments on the top, without a stool or ladder. He just reached his long arm up there and put them on! Pays to have somebody tall enough to reach the stars...My Mom started the tradition of giving each of us an ornament to open on Christmas Eve, so most of what is on our tree is a collection from the last 24 years. It is fun to be with the boys and listen to them remember some of the fun Christmas' past, and the ornaments that have touched them in some way. Some of them are so rag tag, worn out by small fingers...but loved just the same...It is the simple things that make the holidays so dear to us....
