Christmas Eve - midnight report
The presents are under the tree, the stockings are overfilled, and the house is quiet except for the sweet snores coming from our three children nestled upstairs in their beds.
Church was pretty good - Katharine slept through mass (yes!) and Joseph only lightly fidgeted, especially since the altar servers were sitting in our pew. (The ushers accidentally sat a family in their reserved pew). Grace sang very well in the childrens' choir and looked like an angel. At home, after we had cheese pizza and Jesus birthday cake the kids got into their jammies. And Grace decided it was her responsibility to take care of Santa and the reindeer. She carefully put out a plate with 3 cookies (two for Santa and one for him to take home to Mrs. Claus) along with 18 baby carrots (two for each of the reindeer - and the fattest two are for Rudolph). I took a picture of her note. How can you not laugh at that?
I have store-bought cinnamon rolls (not nearly as good as yours!) The camera has fresh batteries and the webcam is tested and ready to go. Two trashbags are on standby. At least we're warm and snug tonight in spite of the blizzard - weathermen!
Love, Cyndi :o)
