Bright Sunshiny Day

Three beeee-yutiful days in a row in mid-December - and no job to go to, too! It's been an absolute gift from God, and we've been enjoying it. Playing outside without even a jacket, going to the park, and just sitting and watching the cars go by. Yes, I'm way, way behind in shopping and decorating. I haven't even started my Christmas cards and I don't think I'll be doing any baking this year, but I'm happy to trade all that for watching Eddie gleefully fling himself head-first down his slide, when we thought we wouldn't be using it until spring. We're going for our tree tonight - that's when you KNOW it's Christmas. And the fact that I won't freeze my patootie off doing it just makes it even better.
