Over

Tonight it seems real that Christmas is over.  I know, I know, Christmas was over a week ago.  But tomorrow the kids go back to school.  I don’t like when the kids go back to school.  *sigh*  Christmas break is over.

We usually pack up the decorations around New Year’s day.  I’ve been feeling a little icky though.  So the tree is still up.  My daughter was watching White Christmas still.  I love the feel of Christmas.  I love the kids being home more ❤

I am still working on a way to freeze time.  Or at least slow it down.  The most I can do for now is to enjoy every minute.

Like this morning, my oldest had an appointment.  She wanted her sister to come with her.  The younger got up early, on the last day of Christmas break, to come out with her sister.  They giggle, tease, and laugh.  They have a good time, all the time when they are together.  They warm my heart!

The boys have their shining moments too.  All four of them have their moments together!  One of the best gifts that I could ever have given them is each other.  I pray that they always love each other; and that their friendships with each other last for life!

Tonight I am thankful for having my babies home this past week and a half.  They took turns with someone being sick every single day, as the crud that came home from school slowly swept its way thru my home.  But, they were home.  They were spending time with each other and relaxing together.  My house has been louder than a circus; but it has been especially shining full of love!
