    Only 8 more days until Christmas!!!!!!!

    I can't believe how fast the calendar seems to move these days! Only 8 more days until Christmas!!!!! I love Christmas for so many reasons, just warms my heart to the core.....family, love, peace, happiness, gift giving, smiling faces, good food, rest, fun, laughter, joy. The list goes on, why can't every day be like Christmas Day? I have to say, as much as I absolutely love my Job and all my Day Care Kids.....I love so much to have that time off with my family, time to sleep in, time to do what I want with my own kids. Time to lofe, time to rest, time to have quiet. Yay! What are your thoughts on Christmas Time?

    I am such a Christmas person too!!!! Love everything about it! I love watching old favorites like Rudolph, putting up lights and the tree, baking treats and squishing in at the dining room table with all my family!! I treasure this family time to do nothing, together!! Strangely, I especially love wrapping presents, thus have become the designated wrapper for several family members ha ha! I love seeing a huge pile of presents under the tree!! Now, before I get jumped on, it is not at all about the contents of the boxes in my family!! We always try to guess what's in presents so often have tiny things in huge boxes, unusual packaging etc.! It's all about sitting on the floor all together and watching as people discover what's in the boxes! Even my 92 year old grandma is cross legged on the floor. Love it all!

    Have you been getting into the Egg Nog? Lol! Merry Christmas to you!
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

    I am looking forward to some lighter weeks. I am not closed through Chrimstas this year because I'm off for a week in January instead. And all of my parents have great jobs that give them the time off anyways. So, I'm officially open, but I'm only working one day next week and it's really light. The following week I only have 3 days and the week after that I'm open for 3 then off to Disney world. WOO HOO! This week can't go fast enough.

    You're right, the calendar has gone by very fast this Dec. I decided to start my Christmas crafts and gifts in November. I remember thinking it felt early, but I'm so glad I did, just need to wrap everything up and sending them home on their last day this week.

    Happy last week of work everyone!

    I am so looking forward to the holiday season. I am off for seven working days after this Friday.
    I still get excited about Christmas morning and love seeing the surprise on everyone's faces as they open their gifts. I am hosting Christmas dinner this year so it will be a busy day.

    Oh I agree Wonderwhiper: I LOVE to see all the gifts under the tree also, not only are they like beautiful decoration for the glittery tree but they represent so much to me. Giving is an amazing gift in itself, and most of the gifts under our tree are from me, to all the people I so dearly care for, I guess that has a lot to do with why I love to see all the gifts under the tree, so excited to give them and see how happy they make everyone.
    and no, I have not been into the egg nog. ha ha ! if I had, I would just have really bad gas....lactose intollerant here!

    I wish we had a emoticon (is that what they r called?) for Christmas....like a little tree or something.

    Only 4 more days until a lovely break with my kids and "cranky-ba hummbug" Husband! and I think 11 days off. WOW! I CAN"T WAIT! <<<- (Christmas Tree)

    I am sadly not as excited about Christmas as I use to be... its all the money spending that bothers me especially when I want to save as much as I can to go on my honeymoon next June, but I sure am looking forward to have all this time off good decision on my part for closing between the Holidays haha even though I dont get paid in full :\ It will be nice to have some time with my Hubby and both of my girls
