We have been surrounded by sickness lately. So far only Ainsley and I haven’t had the stomach bug. I pray it stays that way. Today everyone returned to normal. Kids went to school, and adults went to work. Thank goodness.
Last night we took the kids to the movies (we saw Wreck It Ralph. Very cute movie. We’ve been quoting lines all day.) as a last hurrah. It was a great way to end the holiday week. Thanksgiving is over and the Christmas season has begun. And we celebrated that transition by going to the movies! This morning we drug everybody out of bed and sent them off to school. The routine felt good. After the kids got home, it was homework, violin lessons, grocery store, dinner and then . . . decorating the tree. Chris made hot chocolate. I started our favorite Christmas movie (“Prep and Landing”), and we got to decorating. It was fun. Then finally it was over and the kids went to bed.
It has been a good couple of days. It is a great beginning to the Christmas season.
