Santa TOTALLY DELIVERED this year!
Jonah got his TELESCOPE:
And, Lexi got....
a kitchen??
(Note to Self: Dollar Store Kitchens are cheaper for a reason!!)
And, they BOTH got, what APPEARS to the NAKED eye as a mini-trampoline:
But, what EVERY TRAINED THERAPIST (aka: Mommy) KNOWS, is REALLY a giant THERAPEUTIC DEVICE...
...in EXTREMELY CLEVER disguise!
What a lovely Christmas we had this year! I think this was the most relaxed and enjoyable season of Christmas festivities I've had, since becoming a mother. Maybe the "magic-making" gets easier with time and practice. Maybe it's a matter of giving yourself the freedom to spread out the joy over the entire season, rather than feeling pressured to cram EVERYTHING (and everyone) into a day or two. Maybe it helps to let go of some traditions, while creating or embracing new ones. In any case, it's been less stressful than ever before. The most important thing is remembering the reason for this holiday season, the birth of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, which truly helps keep things in perspective!
