We had such a beautiful day yesterday. The kids got up at 7:00 am, but we sent them back to bed until 8:30. The first gifts opened were from Grandpa and he gave each of the younger kids a brand new coat. Since we got our white Christmas, they were very much appreciated.
The kids made short work of the gift opening and there were many smiles and a few happy tears shed when Prima Donna discovered that her new purse held a copy of her ticket from the accident that included a receipt marked "paid in full."
I got in a couple of hours of sleep before Teach and Twiz showed up and then Bossy and Gamer. I loved sharing their gifts with them a few grown-up kids at a time. The Dog Walker headed off to spend time the Cat Lover and her family. Beauty and The Beast started a fun new tradition of a Cereal Bar for dinner. They brought the weirdest kinds of cereal for the kids to try...
By 6:30 the kids were heading back to their homes and I was ready for another nap. My sleep schedule is totally messed up, but it's Christmas and I can mostly just stay home and enjoy my family and my sweetie's good cooking for the rest of the week. That's my most amazing gift of the year.
Merry Christmas.

Oh if looks like such a lovely Christmas for all. I think Baby Doll looks so adorable in her new dress. I do hope you slow down a bit but I'm not sure that will happen.
Sending loving thoughts and hugs your way!
