Christmas Morning


Not wanting the little cherubs to wake up and immediately go out to see what Santa had brought, we made sure they understood NOT to leave their rooms until we came to get them. At 8 o’clock, I hear Morgan talking. I immediately jumped up and quickly ran into her room, only to be shocked and surprised. She was still asleep. And so was Mason! But due to our hustle and bustle to their rooms, soon the sleepy heads were slowly moving out from their cozy beds. Santa had come, and had left presents, but also a note informing our children they BARELY made the nice list. St. Nick suggested the importance of listening to their parents and teachers for the year to come. I didn’t think the message would really affect them until I overheard Morgan say to one of our neighbors, “yes, we did get presents from Santa, but we have to be better for next year.” We spent the day relaxing in our PJs (Hence why you will not see photos of me or Scott on Christmas Day.) and watching the kids enjoy their new gifts.
