It's always bittersweet when Christmas is over. It feels like so much time is spent planning and preparing and wrapping and getting ready for it and then all of a sudden, everything is just done. I always feel like it's a little bit of a letdown when it's over. Not in the sense that things weren't all that I would want them to be, just in the sense that it's really just another day and there's only 24 hours. I do really love the whole Christmas season too and feel a little sad when it's over. It seems like the next few months of winter are longer than the first ones leading up to Christmas. I am really looking forward to having things back to normal again....taking down the tree, putting away decorations, less crowded stores and parking lots. It is always nice after the busyness of the holidays to have things quiet down a bit.
Anyway, I've really just digressed. We had a good Christmas. It was such a blessing to watch our boys and to see the excitement and joy in Henry's eyes and the contentment in William's. They are the greatest gift I have.
