Vision of sugar plums dance in their heads.
Not Megan's head though. She has been up
since 5am waiting to see what awaits her
under the tree and the ugly teenagers are
still asleep in their beds. I only have this
one child left that still is excited about
Christmas morning. We just got done
making monkey bread together and
singing Christmas carols.

I just read a friends blog and her guest blogger
mentioned about family traditions we
hated while we were growing up but
once they aren't there for the first time
we miss them no matter what. Isn;t that
funny. I never would have thought about
it because I always try to keep a few of
my traditions going and some of my
husbands as well. I hope my children
don't have to many of the omg do we really
have to eat that or do that.

Miss Megan is now impishly awaking her
siblings and father so they can open
presents. I haven't heard any screaming
yet but I am sure there will be. I must go
and remove the monkey bread from the
oven and sit back and watch the children
open their presents from "Santa" and be
thankful I have people in my life that care
about my children and would take good
care of them if anything should ever happen
to me.

Happy Holiday and Happy New Year may
this coming year be kinder and gentler for
one and all.
