Waiting for Santa

[jennaflower]

Here I sit.. Christmas eve...

My little one... on what is probably the last year that he will BELIEVE in Santa... is finally snug in his bed. Unfortunately he has chosen this day to come down with some sort of flu bug.. hopefully he will be all better by morning.. no doubt as soon as he sees all that Santa brought him.

Yes.. I Must admit.. I went a little over board.. okay.. ALOT overboard this year... but as a single parent... knowing not only that this would be his last Christmas that he believes.. and knowing that his father won't be seeing him this year (until summer) and knowing that his father didn't send anything in a timely manner... I had to make sure that my son feels the way EVERY child should feel on christmas morning... loved.. cherished.. and rewarded.......

As I sit here... waiting to put out the gifts... and eat the cookies.. (Yes, I made MY favorite kind)... I want to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas... May all of you wake in the morning do discover that you are all blessed far beyond your dreams...

I would love to catch each and every one of you under the mistletoe :)

HUGS.......... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!

JF you sound like a very special mum that any kid would be lucky to have. Hope you and your son had a great day yesterday. I'm sure you did.

Thanks.. you are all sooo sweet... and prove to me once again why I keep returning... hour after hour... just to get glimpses of all of you :)

Christmas was a wonderful day... My little ones face was priceless when he came out to find all the gifts under the tree.. he was expecially taken by the remote control truck.. his raider shirt :) and the bike he got from my folks ;)

I must admit.. there was a moment or two.. that I wanted to freeze things just as they were.... he is growing up tooo fast..

[incitatus]

Yes, Jenna,
Children grow up WAY too fast. I'm glad you had a chance to "savor" the moment!

...just don't let it stop at Christmas. Take the time to enjoy EVERY moment with your child.

Merry Christmas Jennaflower to you and your little one (how fast they grow). He may forget about Santa, but here's hoping the spirit of Christmas will always burn bright in his heart. (I still love the season after 59 years.)
