Christmas Story

Twas the day before Christmas and all through the house,
all the kids were a scury just like a mouse.
All the nuts on the table had been shelled just right,
when mom walked in it ws a messy sight.
With ma out shopping and dad to babysit,
This was too cute she couldn't through a fit.
With all the excitement he just couldn't wait,
Kade was the one to get everyone a wake.
With eyes still a blurr and excitment growing,
they came down the hall to see the tree just a glowing.
Soon presents were scatered from here and to there,
A sure sign Santa had been here.
From Scotters, tamagatchi's and pokemans too,
It's not over now we get to go to Grandmas, Waa-hoo.
With all said and done and new memories to share,
Merry Christmas to all and a happy New Year.

December Cheer

It is still two weeks before Christmas so the stress hasn't fully enveloped us. Although, I have sure noticed a posotive change in myself. Tonight as the kids where acting totally crazy laughing then arguing with one another I just had a sense of rightness. My kids are Healthy and happy. Afterall it is healthy to argue with your siblings and healthy to want stuff. They are in schooland learning so thats healthy. They have food, beds, and toys. A functional family as opposed to a "dis"functional family. Being raised in this kind of environment it just seem natural but tonight I truely felt blessed. Then to make me smile more Ben started wrestling with the kids. That always makes me smile because everyone is laughing.
