Wow! Talk about being unseasonably cheery! This just isn't like me. I am actually enjoying the holidays without any major stress. Our kids gifts are bought and wrapped, the house is oozing with Christmas cheer, and even the unpredictable Texas weather has cooperated. The cooler air makes it really feel like Christmas.However, the season didn't start out that way. I was feeling bummed and not into it and out of no where my husband was telling me excited he is for Christmas this year. I thought to myself, well, if he is THEN I had to be! I couldn't let him out do me. It almost frightens me that everything is going to smoothly. You know how you just get that feeling? I do have a feeling that this is Zach's last year as a believer, even though I will do all I can to keep the dream alive. He is just such a realist at such a young age, but that's just his personality. My girls are my Holiday TV Special watcher buddies. They love to snuggle on the couch and watch them with me. This year the new Disney's Prep and Landing is my favorite.
Is it possible that this could be the best Christmas in the history of our marriage? If so, then I owe it all to my husband for giving me that little boost. This year I am going to enjoy every moment of it, besides this will be the one and only Christmas 2009. The funny thing is this year I really don't want anything.
