I want to go ahead and wish all of you a very merry Christmas greeting that this season will bring much love and joy to your and your family with a blessed New Year as well.
Okay so who else gets just as excited as an adult as your kids probably do with the thoughts of Christmas morning?! Please tell me I’m not alone. I can’t help myself. It truly is like being a kid in a candy store again every Christmas Eve. I hate the thoughts of even having to go to bed that night because I want it to be Christmas morning so bad. I don’t want to miss a single second of it. Well if you are anything like me then I’m sure you are enjoying yourself to pieces. I saw the Santa Clause in the picture below while shopping and just had to have my picture with him. Yes, I’m 4’11” which is why me and Santa are so close in height. ๐
Christmas is just a week away so there is still lots to be done, but I wanted to take this time today to slow down and let you all know how much I appreciate you and all your support throughout this year and every year. I couldn’t continue with my blog if it weren’t for you especially. I am sending virtual candy canes everyone’s way for you to enjoy in a cup of hot cocoa. (Wouldn’t that be delicious?)
We have been enjoying ourselves and making lots of memories. We got a real tree again this year which is always fun to wake up and smell the fresh cut tree. Our town also has an annual Christmas parade that we enjoyed with lots of floats and fun activities.
On the same note, I don’t want to pretend that we all live in a fantasy world where no one is grieving. There are probably many of you at the same time that are hurting and missing loved ones this time of year. For many the thoughts of putting up a Christmas tree is so painful you can’t bear it. I want you to know that God has never left your side and is carrying you even in the darkest times. He loves you so much! You are in my prayers, and I wish joy for you even in what seems like the darkest times.
Again Merry Christmas and stay tuned later this week where I’m continuing my Pregnancy Adventure Series and sharing all about that 1st Trimester Adventure.
