Let me tell ya, this woman feels like wonder-mom! I can decorate, bake 5 different types of cookies, make 2 big holiday meals, get gifts, make gifts, buy more decorations, visit family and friends. All while taking care of the baby (who still acts like a newborn) , maintaing the geral household (I.e.laundry, cleaning, meals , etc) and still managing to enjoy this season! Trust me ...its nothing easy to do all of that and not get lost in the hustle and bustle of things .
So many times I caught myself in my typical trance....cup of coffee in hand, eyes fixated on the blinking of Christmas tree lights, while Deck the Halls rings out from Pandora on my laptop. Which I may add has been smartly hooked up to the tv so I could use the surround sound to blare Christmas music throughout the entire house. There were so many things that I still didn't get done that I wanted to. I wanted to have a Christmas potluck. ..you know ,invite some friends and have a blast just hanging out. Or actually take more pictures where I actually dressed up ! Lol haven't done that in a wuile.
But none of these things trully fills my heart as much as my baby girl or my husband does. This is the first Christmas season that I saw my husband actually get somewhat giddy about the holidays! We decked the halls brightly with baby in tow and had a blast doing it! I couldn't have ask for a better gift. My heart was greatly warmed when my husband danced the baby around the room singing 'its beginning to look a lot like Christmas' while I made cookies. I often wonder what G-d sees in me to bless me with such a wonderful , beautiful , little family. I don't know what it is but I'm deeply and truly blessed!
