Two weeks ago, I missed
posting a blog because we didn’t have a working computer.
One week ago, it was
Thanksgiving weekend, the girls were here, they were sick, I was sick, chaos
reigned.
This week, I’m feeling much
better, BUT…
IT’S HOLIDAY
MADNESS TIME!!!
I’m already facing burnout
from the non-stop push for MATERIAL STUFF.
This is going to be a VERY
lean gift-giving year. And as the various posts on Facebook have said, as I get
older the important stuff is NOT STUFF. I love giving gifts, and will still do
that to the best of my ability, but they will be hand-made for the most part.
Lia will get a couple of special things, but she is one of those rare kids who
don’t seem to need a LOT of presents.
What I want most of all is to
sit by the fireplace, have my family around me, read the Christmas account from
the Bible and reflect on all the many, many blessings God has bestowed on us
all these years. That’s all I want. All I need. Is that too much to ask for?
