Christmas Spirit

Hustle bustle, hustle bustle. This time of year gets just too too hectic. I am feeling a little stressed and over whelmed. This week I have been running a holiday shoppe at the kids school. It has been really fun and the kids have been so excited to shop for their families. We even help them wrap so they can give mom and dad a surprise present. The kids bring a lot of holiday joy with them and so much excitement for the magic of Christmas. It has added to my busy schedule though. So, now here we are just a few days to Christmas and I have oh so much to do. I am trying to remain calm :). I'm trying to remember the reason for the season :). Someone has been bringing us goodies for the twelve days of Christmas. It is an amazing and wonderful thing. Here in Arizona where I am so far from my family and friends and I still feel homesick. It is so nice to have someone think of us. They have brought us wonderfully creative and fun things. Today the Lords a leaping were so sore after leaping they needed a nice relaxing bath. They brought us a beautiful basket filled with bath stuff and lotion for me and bubble bath for the kiddos. After a very long day I am going to take advantage of a nice relaxing bubble bath. Thank you, thank you to whoever is making so much effort to do some nice for our little family. We feel loved. Hope you are all feeling and spreading the Christmas spirit. Merry Christmas my friends. We love you!!!!
