The last couple of weeks have been spent getting ready for Christmas. We have been busy baking, shopping and wrapping gifts. You have enjoyed helping out as well as keeping me busy when you have been left alone for too long! We have given up on shopping now that the malls are really crowed but we are done for the most part. As for Santa, we made it to the mall on a Tuesday night, in hopes that it wouldn't be too busy, and we lucked out as there was hardly a crowd. You were excited to see Santa and had no hesitation when it came to sitting on his knee. You informed him that you would like a "real" Zamboni for Christmas to use on the rink in the backyard. Lol...we will have to see about that!!
Our plans for Christmas are pretty simple. We are sticking around here so we are close to our hospital, just in case anything happens. We are still hoping for a phone call informing us of a cancellation and the chance to get your "tubes" out early. Nevertheless, we continue with all things Christmas and thankful we are all together this year.
The last couple of days have been nice outside so we have taken advantage of that and played outside in the yard as well as the park. Your dad has the ice rink finished so we have been encouraging you to try skating but you only last a couple of minutes and you want off. I think you enjoy shoveling the snow all over the back yard more than skating!!
As we count down the days to Christmas I am overwhelmed by joy knowing how far we have come this year. We prayed and hoped that we would be home for Christmas and we are not only home but know that you are healthy. I definitely could not have asked for anything more this Christmas then the health of my family.
Love you to the moon and back,
Mom
