One Proud Mama

I’m still not done shopping. What a hectic year. I’m not ready. I don’t even have the Christmas tree up yet. Although I did cheat a little and bought a bunch of gifts online instead of dealing with the shopping crowds at the store. The addition on the house still isn’t done yet (hence the lack of Christmas tree!) and there isn’t a Christmas decoration in sight yet in or outside this house. Enough ranting - I’m sure I’m not the only mom stretched to the limit this year.

On another note, the kids are getting excited about Christmas. They know it’s coming soon. I think I’ll sit down with them tomorrow and make our usual Christmas countdown chains. You know, the kind where you link strips of paper together and tear one off each night before bed until Christmas.

Poor Chris is finally getting over his most recent sinus infection, but it is really hanging on this time. Tomorrow is his last dose of antibiotic and he still has a nasty cough. I pray it doesn’t relapse and we have to start all over again. He’s been so good since spring, where we couldn’t seem to keep him off medicine for more than a week without getting sick again. I pray he outgrows this tendency for sinus infections.

Better get back to work. Have a good night.
