Merry Christmas Everyone! Santa arrived at our house early this morning.  As he left the house he yelled, Ho Ho Ho… and the twins quickly jumped out of their bed.  I hurried to get my camera out of my bedroom then we rushed downstairs to see what gifts Santa left our family.

William and Keisha were very excited to see that Santa ate the brownies that I made him last night.  He also drank a glass of milk and left the evidence on the children’s red table.  Alexander gave us lots of smiles as he watched his big brother and sister open their presents.

This holiday season has been very difficult for me.  I have been a complete Mrs. Scrooge and I really did not want to have any involvement with decorations and gifts.  I am not fully myself yet, but thanks to my husband and children, I am not feeling like Mrs. Scrooge anymore. The tree is up and the kids are happy.  More importantly, I thank God for waking me up another day to be with my family, our good health, providing a roof over my head… and even though I have mixed feelings about returning to work on Monday, I thank God for the job that I have because many in the world do not have that.

Happy Holidays to all. I wish you a Merry Christmas.  Be safe and thankful for what you have and not what you do not have.
